Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never before available in English, this classic work is a major contribution to the art and technique of violin playing and an important document in the history of performance practice. A contemporary of Kreutzer and Rode, Pierre Marie Francois de Sales Baillot provides in his treatise many insights into the style of nineteenth-century fingering, bowing, ornamentation, and expressiveness that are not apparent from the directions and markings found in scores of that time. Such information will be invaluable for performers interested in understanding the intentions of composers such as Viotti, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and Mendelssohn. This complete, unabridged translation, which includes an extensive introduction by the translator, Louise Goldberg, and a foreword by Zvi Zeitlin, will be indispensable for musicologists, performers, and lovers of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century classical music.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document examines the reasons young violin students struggle with practicing and provides a unique solution based on the teachings of Galamian, Flesch, and others. In a much broader sense, the document also addresses many of the common technical issues that young violin students deal with. It begins with an overview of foundational violin technique, including posture, stance, the bow hold, the left hand, and how to hold the violin in position. A detailed outline of best practices for the first year of lessons is also given. Further chapters discuss the technique of the left hand and the bow hand in depth and give exercises for students to practice when dealing with specific technical issues. In response to a survey that was given, the fourth chapter covers common problems that cause students to struggle with practicing and addresses ways that teachers can motivate students to practice and help them be successful. When students are well set up and comfortable on the instrument, they are much more likely to be motivated and to practice successfully. A proper set up can be accomplished by teaching good, foundational technique through the Suzuki method.

Book excerpt: HOW CHINA'S MOST CELEBRATED VIOLIN PRODIGY BECAME AN ENEMY OF STATE. The King of Violins is the heartbreaking story of China's most celebrated violin prodigy, Ma Sicong, who composed his first concerto at the age of 12. During his career, this gentle, dignified man composed 57 of the world's best-known symphonies and concertos and performed in front of hundreds of sold-out audiences across the globe. Chairman Mao Zedong declared Ma Sicong "a national treasure" and nicknamed him The King of Violins. Soon, Chairman Mao's brutal Cultural Revolution distorted the truth of Ma's life and work. He is forced to wear a dunce cap, and is publicly humiliated and physically abused by cadres of Red Guards as "a vile product of bourgeois thinking." Ma and his family make a breath-taking escape in the darkness to America. After Chairman Mao died in 1976, the real circumstances of Ma's poignant, bittersweet life were buried in the pages of history by an embarrassed Chinese government. Eleven years later, Ma died at the age of 76 in Philadelphia. The King of Violins, written in cooperation with all of Ma's remaining family members, and is the first politically balanced life story about this generous, conflicted musical genius. (Contains 89 rare vintage photographs).

Download or read book An Analysis of the Art of Practising B written by Editha Knocker and published by Hesperides Press. This book was released on 2006-07-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These Examples of technical problems are in no way intended to take the place of the recognized "classics" of violin-exercise literature. They are to show how difficulties may be analysed and prepared for. They are divided into three sections: Bowings in elementary form, Bowings in more varied form and Left hand. I have, in many cases written only a bar or two, leaving the student to work out the suggestion for himself. The keys in which they are written should be changed from day to day. Needless to say, the passages are to be practised descending as well as ascending. These same principles can be applied to every kind of difficulty. The suggestions given in "The Making of a Violinist" should be read carefully, before practising these examples. I emphasise again that the student's aim must be to acquire beauty of tone, ease of style and decision of action."

Book excerpt: GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK! • Ray McMillian is a Black classical musician on the rise—undeterred by the pressure and prejudice of the classical music world—when a shocking theft sends him on a desperate quest to recover his great-great-grandfather’s heirloom violin on the eve of the most prestigious musical competition in the world. “I loved The Violin Conspiracy for exactly the same reasons I loved The Queen’s Gambit: a surprising, beautifully rendered underdog hero I cared about deeply and a fascinating, cutthroat world I knew nothing about—in this case, classical music.” —Chris Bohjalian, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Flight Attendant and Hour of the Witch Growing up Black in rural North Carolina, Ray McMillian’s life is already mapped out. But Ray has a gift and a dream—he’s determined to become a world-class professional violinist, and nothing will stand in his way. Not his mother, who wants him to stop making such a racket; not the fact that he can’t afford a violin suitable to his talents; not even the racism inherent in the world of classical music. When he discovers that his beat-up, family fiddle is actually a priceless Stradivarius, all his dreams suddenly seem within reach, and together, Ray and his violin take the world by storm. But on the eve of the renowned and cutthroat Tchaikovsky Competition—the Olympics of classical music—the violin is stolen, a ransom note for five million dollars left in its place. Without it, Ray feels like he's lost a piece of himself. As the competition approaches, Ray must not only reclaim his precious violin, but prove to himself—and the world—that no matter the outcome, there has always been a truly great musician within him.
