- Every chapter of The Violin Lesson is a masterful presentation in which Simon Fischer tackles the obvious and seemingly intractable problems of playing and teaching the violin. Richly illustrated with hundreds of photographs, this book is engaging and candidly narrated. Nobody who is seriously interested in playing, teaching or studying the violin - at any level from professional to amateur, advanced to elementary - can afford not to add The Violin Lesson to their library.
- In his typically thorough but straightforward way, he addresses technique, musical artistry and psychology as manageable and interconnected units, often illuminating the problems from new and unexpected angles and transforming even the most intimidating matters into inviting subjects with clear solutions.
- In Background Essentials, Fischer covers seldom-discussed essential elements of musicianship, technique and how to practice.
- The chapter on Avoiding Aches and Pains offers understanding of the causes of injuries, as well as new and effective remedies and prevention practices.
The Violin Lesson offers players of all levels the opportunity immediately, and dramatically, improve their technique and understanding of violin playing. Presented in twelve comprehensive and highly accessible lessons filled with more than 500 music examples and over 350 photographs, it provides fresh approaches to neglected aspects of playing whilst covering all the major areas of violin technique including: tone production, intonation, avoiding aches and pains, changing position, improving bow strokes, and vibrato. Whether outlining a basic concept or an advanced technique, each topic is handled with clarity and attention to detail for which Simon Fischer is so highly regarded. Fundamental exercises, principles, and practice methods sit alongside case studies and practical guestion-and-answer sections to present a truly rounded volume. The Violin Lesson is essential reading for both students and teachers alike.
