Specificatii
A 16-ounce package of polished wood, strings, and air, the violin
is perhaps the most affordable, portable, and adaptable instrument
ever created. As congenial to reels, ragas, Delta blues, and indie
rock as it is to solo Bach and late Beethoven, it has been played
standing or sitting, alone or in groups, in bars, churches, concert
halls, lumber camps, even concentration camps, by pros and
amateurs, adults and children, men and women, at virtually any
latitude on any continent. Despite dogged attempts by musicologists
worldwide to find its source, the violin's origins remain
maddeningly elusive. The instrument surfaced from nowhere in
particular, in a world that Columbus had only recently left behind
and Shakespeare had yet to put on paper. By the end of the violin's
first century, people were just discovering its possibilities. But
it was already the instrument of choice for some of the greatest
music ever composed by the end of its second. By the dawn of its
fifth, it was established on five continents as an icon of
globalization, modernization, and social mobility, an A-list
trophy, and a potential capital gain.In The Violin, David
Schoenbaum has combined the stories of its makers, dealers, and
players into a global history of the past five centuries. From the
earliest days, when violin makers acquired their craft from box
makers, to Stradivari and the Golden Age of Cremona; Vuillaume and
the Hills, who turned it into a global collectible; and
incomparable performers from Paganini and Joachim to Heifetz and
Oistrakh, Schoenbaum lays out the business, politics, and art of
the world's most versatile instrument.
