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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45279770607669,"sku":"ByrdShop_0810107546","price":30.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780810107540.jpg?v=1780609719","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-art-of-the-violin-9780810107540","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
