David Woodrow’s research into the principles behind violin forms is revealed in this fascinating book. Woodrow discusses whether the golden age makers had a generative system for designing their instruments, then explores the different methods they might have used. Clear diagrams illustrate the text, and tables of measurements show the development of the violin’s shape over time. Essential reading for those who want to find out more about the design of the classic Cremonese instruments.
