Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Violins: And Violin LoreWhat is the secret of the violin? Why is it that when a great violinist appears all the other soloists have to take a back seat?The answer is: the fascination of the violin is the fascination of the soul unveiled.No instrument - the human voice hardly excepted - provides such a rare vehicle for the emotions - is in such close touch with the molecular vibrations of thought and with the psychic waves of feeling. But whilst the violin equals the voice in sensibility and expression, it far transcends it in compass, variety, and durability.Consider the singular completeness and perfection of this instrument as a sort of physical and vibratory counterpart of the soul. The four strings no doubt limit and define its compass, and only in the quartet and collectively, is it capable of extended effects of complex harmony; but as a tone-producing instrument and within its limits it is perfect - every gradation of sound between tone and semitone is attainable, and for no other instrument can this be claimed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Rare Old Violins Joseph Guarnerius Del Gesu, Cremona, i742 Number 4620. So rare are the really great violin masterpieces that it is not our privilege every year to be able to offer a specimen which, in every respect, stands at the very top of the violin world. Through circumstances brought about by war we were able to purchase, from a French collector, the "Wieniawski," date i742, one of the greatest violins Guarnerius ever made. This instrument belongs to that period of Guarnerius' life when he turned out work which has made his name as great a household term as that of Stradivarius. Violinists, ever since Paganini's time, have sought the instruments of this particular period. Because of their broad pattern and large size, the exquisite wood selection and superb workmanship, they possess power and virility which is unequalled; at the same time, the greatest purity and tenderness form a distinct characteristic of their voice. This violin is the greatest in point of tone of any instrument by this maker that has ever come into our possession--of which there have been many. It is primarily a concert artist's instrument; it is especially adapted, on account of its sweet quality of tone and power, to the use of an artist demanding the maximum of power and richness of quality which a violin can give. The back is formed by one piece of curly maple, having a broadish figure extending slightly upward from left to right; the top is of spruce of the choicest selection known to this maker; the scroll is in his best style; the varnish, of which there is a plentiful supply, is of a beautiful brownish yellow color. Its remarkable condition is one of its most noteworthy features. It is free from cracks and blemishes, and is in practically a perfect...

Schley Collection AMONG the few notable American collections of Rare Violins, that r of the late Mr. C. B. Schley easily takes first rank. Mr. Schley had a keen appreciation and a wide knowledge of violins and violin music. His collection first began to attract the attention of the violin world about 1901, at which time we became acquainted with him. We had but recently acquired the Hawley collection, and Mr. Schley selected for his own use the well known violin by Giovanni Paolo Maggini, which for so many years had been the property of the late Mr. R. D. Hawley. This violin Mr. Schley retained up to the time of his death. It is regarded as the finest work of Maggini in America. Another Hawley violin which Mr. Schley wished to possesss was the "Grand Amati," but he was too late, as it had already been sold. It was not until some years later that he finally became its owner. The two violins which, among violin connoisseurs, are recognized as having no equals anywhere by the same master, are the pair of splendid Carlo Bergonzis, which rank as the very finest known examples of his work. Another favorite is the violin by Joseph Guarnerius del Jesu, a well known and famous instrument, known as the "Mayseder," and for many years the property of Miss Maud Powell, the famous American virtuoso. The Montagnani is one of the finest violins by the great Venetian known. It is extraordinarily beautiful, in the pink of condition, and possesses a tone of pristine freshness and beauty. Owing to the decease of Mr. Schley, his collection has been placed in our hands for sale. Special Terms Ordinary terms on which Rare Old Violins are sold by us will not prevail in this instance. Sales will be made for cash only, or nearly so, and...
