Download or read book The Art of Violin Playing for Players and Teachers written by Frank Thistleton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1924, this book is the result of many years' quiet thought and observation in connection with the authors own teaching. It focuses mainly on the essential skills of violin playing, rather than on the peculiarities that all players adopt to suit their own requirements. The book contains broad common-sense views, preferring not to concentrate on any particular "school" or "method". Written with some humour and in a very colloquial style it will prove to be a refreshing read, and is fully supported with detailed diagrams and photographic plates. This book is highly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of any amateur or professional violin player.

Book excerpt: "My object in writing this book is to encourage and help those students of the violin who are sufficiently intelligent to wish to advance with the times and who realise that in order to free violin playing from the rut of tradition in which it has complacently remained for so long, it is necessary to bring greater insistence to bear on the imaginative and poetical side of violin playing than has been done up to the present" Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Violin-Playing Well, the strict and truthful answer to this query is that, first of all, nobody is born with a divine gift of violin-playing any more than he is born with a divine gift of walking, or of talking the language of his own parents. He has to learn all three. About once in a hundred thousand times it happens that a player hits on the correct mechanical procedure by accident, just as about once in a hundred thousand times an engineer might guess the tensions of his steel bridge correctly. The engineer can only repeat his success by the miracle of a second lucky guess. In that respect the violinist has the advantage over him. When once he has hit on the right method, he recognizes its value by its artistic results. He tests it; and finds that, with him, it always works. That gives him the one thing for which he is searching - personal security on his instrument. The physical why and wherefore of the matter never crosses his mind. But observe the vast difference between the two cases from the teacher's point of view! N 0 one, out of a lunatic asylum, would ap point the guessing engineer to a university chair of engineering. The violinist, on the other hand, though he is certain to have all the artist's distaste for definition and all the artist's confusion as between means and sensation, is immediately labelled genius. N ow, so long as he remains in the genius-business, there is not one word to be said against him. But as soon as that cap is stuck on his head, he becomes a potent money-drawing attraction as a teacher. And there the trouble begins. He collects a great many expensive pupils, who come to learn the mysteries of his art. In the class-room they all stand round him, open-mouthed with the words How is it done? And he has not the remotest idea of any satisfactory answer to these terribly searching words. He may Show them how, of course. He may play the actual passage under discussion. If it comes off the first time, all he can answer to their question is, Like that. If it doesn't come off the first or second time, he has to try again, blaming his bow or perhaps the weather for his earlier failures. And even if he plays the passage finally - nay, even if he plays it finally with the most perfect and con summate art - his pupils have learned nothing technically. After the exhibition, one can only say that he differs from them in that he can play the passage sometimes, and they can not.
