Book Reviews of Art of Violin Playing: Book One
Book Review: Wonderful, wonderful book
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a violinist for six years. I ordered this book because I wanted to have a fuller understanding about Carl Flesch's Scale System (which is explained in this book, using the key of C major for the example). After looking through the whole book, I consider it a terrific approach to violin playing in general. Mr. Flesch discusses things I had never thought about. His scale system, as discussed in this book, is very methodical, an example of his entire approach to the technical aspect of playing. I have learned so much just from reading this book, and always consult it when I get stuck. To gain a fuller mastery of the violin, you should consider buying this book.
[Obviously, you can't learn the violin from a book. But this can serve as a reference when your teacher doesn't return your call instantly! ;)]
Summary of Art of Violin Playing: Book One
A monumental undertaking, this new translation of Carl Flesch's essential The Art of Violin Playing, by Eric Rosenblith, preserves all the essential basic concepts of Flesch's original, but presents them in more contemprary and idiomatic English. New hand diagrams have been added and a table for the consistent use of bowing and fingering symbols. The range of material covered by this massive book is enormous: Body Posture, The Left Arm, (position and fingerings), Vibrato, Bowing (including all varieties of strokes), Tone Production, Musical Memory and much, much more. This new edition of The Art of Violin Playing, Vol.1 will prove to be one of the most significant string publications of the new century.Instruments & Performers Books
