Book synopsis

This book was written in an effort to increase§awareness among violinists of the role and importance§of violin schools in present-day performance and§pedagogy. Over time, the meaning and relevance of the§term school (as it applies to violin playing and§teaching) has become increasingly ambiguous. The§purpose of this work is three-fold: 1) to determine§the extent to which schools continue to affect§prominent violin teachers/performers in the United§States today, 2) to give an account of available§literature addressing the various schools of violin§playing, and 3) to provide a useful reference to many§of the more prominent teacher-student relationships,§the relationships of those teachers to the schools§where they were active, and some of the most§significant treatises on violin playing (see Chapter§Four: Tables). It is apparent from the interviews§that current perspectives and opinions pertaining to§the influence of schools vary quite widely, even§among renowned artists and teachers. However, one may§develop a discriminating sense of the importance of§various schools in the history of violin playing and§teaching by studying the interviews and the sources§relevant to this topic.
