Book Reviews of Violin DreamsBook Review: Well written memoir Summary: 5 Stars
Great memoir! realistic and inspiring; a must read for aspiring musicians. Arnold Steinhardt narrates significant moments and thoughts of his musical career, from early violin lessons to becoming a consummate virtuoso violinist.
Book Review: Lovely book Summary: 4 Stars
This is a lovely book. Quiet. Respectful of tradition. Informative. The book is full of love for the violin and for the hard but fruitful life that mastering it has afforded the author. I note the five stars given by all the other reviewers, and while I share their affection for Violin Dreams, I withhold that last star because the book has only modest aspirations and consequently it is a shame to attempt to make too much of it. But I am really glad that I discovered it and that it sent me back to listening to Bach's compositions for solo violin.
