Flesch, The Art of Violin Playing Bk 1 (Fischer)

Eric Rosenblith's new translation of Carl Flesch's The Art of Violin Playing is impressive. It maintains the fundamental concepts presented in the original but updates the language to make it more contemporary and easy to understand. The book includes new hand diagrams and a table for consistently using bowing and fingering symbols. The topics covered in this comprehensive book are vast, including body posture, left arm position and fingerings, vibrato, bowing techniques, tone production, musical memory, and much more. This revised edition of The Art of Violin Playing, Vol. 1, is likely to be one of the most significant string publications of the new century.
