Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate art of playing "division" on the viol, a highly expressive technique that allows skilled musicians to embellish and improvise upon a given melody or "ground." The author, a seasoned musician and teacher, guides the reader through the fundamentals of viol technique, including proper posture, bow handling, and fingering. He then unveils the secrets of division playing, breaking down its various forms and offering practical exercises to develop fluency and musicality. Beyond mere technical instruction, the book explores the deeper philosophical and spiritual dimensions of music. The author draws fascinating parallels between musical harmony and the celestial order, suggesting that the beauty and complexity of music reflect the divine principles governing the universe. Ultimately, this book offers not just a practical guide to viol playing, but a profound meditation on the power of music to elevate the human spirit and connect us to something greater than ourselves. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282564285_0
