Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an enlightening exploration of the history and evolution of the viola alta, an underappreciated string instrument that has long played a significant role in classical music. The author traces the viola alta's origins to the rebab, an instrument brought to Europe by the Arabs in the Middle Ages. Through meticulous research and analysis of historical documents, the author demonstrates how the viola alta gradually developed into a distinct instrument with its own unique tonal qualities and expressive capabilities. The author argues that the viola alta's true potential has been overlooked due to the widespread use of instruments with flawed dimensions and construction. By presenting a set of precise measurements and proportions, the author provides luthiers with the knowledge necessary to craft violas altas that fully realize the instrument's inherent beauty and power. This book is essential reading for musicians, music historians, and anyone interested in the development of musical instruments. Its insights into the viola alta's history and construction will help elevate the instrument to its rightful place as a prominent voice in the orchestra and as a captivating solo instrument. 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 # 9781332626595_0
