Item description from seller

First Edition. This sixth volume in Samuel Applebaum's influential THE WAY THEY PLAY series continues the exploration of world-class string performers and the traditions behind great playing. Through interviews, photographs, and personal commentary, each chapter offers a detailed look at interpretation, tone production, and technical mastery. This volume is particularly significant for its unique combination of perspectives from both performers and master craftsmen. It features the acclaimed French violinist Zino Francescatti, renowned for his lyrical tone and impeccable technique; Jacques Français, the legendary New York violin dealer and restorer; and members of the Moennig family, one of America's most respected violin-dealing dynasties. Their contributions reflect a rich dialogue between musical interpretation and the artistry of fine instrument making. Octavo. 352 pp. Near Fine - a clean, unmarked copy with only light shelf wear. Binding tight; contents crisp. FEATURED ARTISTS IN THIS VOLUME: Zino Francescatti (violin) Jacques Français (violin dealer/restorer) Wanda Wi?komirska (violin) Elmar Oliveira (violin) Stuart Sankey (double bass) Felix Galimir (violin) William Moennig & family (violin dealers/restorers).
