VIOLIN MASTERY
"What is violin mastery as I understand it? First of all it means talent, secondly technic, and in the third place, tone. And then one must be musical in an all-embracing sense to attain it.

And, finally, the good God must give the artist who aspires to be a master good hands, and direct him to a good teacher!"
