No list of twentieth-century landmarks in music reference would be valid without Bachmanns Encyclopedia.mdash;American Reference Book Annual"If there were such an award as one for the best reprint of our day; surely this book by Alberto Bachmann would be way up front with the leaders."mdash;American String TeacherOf the many books written about the violin; none offers the breadth and scope of this renowned reference. First published in 1925; it remains unsurpassed as a source of essential information on all aspects of the instrument. It traces the evolution of technique from the 1800s onward; in addition to examining the violins construction and manufacture; listing American and European makers; and offering a biographic section on chamber music ensembles.Seventy-three rare photographs complement the text; which features an introduction by the legendary violinist Eugegrave;ne Ysayuml;e and a glossary of music and musical terms. Written by a concert violinist and composer; this remarkable handbook is a must for professionals; amateurs; teachers; and students.
