- Summary
- "By chronicling the searches of top cellists in England, Europe, and North America, Laird reveals the great variety of forms that exist among what cellists call the "Baroque cello." This is the first study in which the revival of a single period instrument has been considered in such qualified detail. The Baroque Cello Revival also offers many details concerning the history of the period performance movement in reference to famous ensembles and musicians. This volume will be welcomed by musicologists, luthiers, and anyone interested in string history."--BOOK JACKET.
