Re: vibrato

[Sandra Layman <sandralayman...>]

Maybe this will help:

The History of Violin Playing from Its Origins to 1761 and Its Relationship
to the Violin and Violin Music, David D. Boyden.

Violin Technique and Performance Practice in the Late Eighteenth and Early
Nineteenth Centuries (Cambridge Musical Texts and Monographs), Robin
Stowell.

Also try:
String Playing in Baroque Music, Robert Donington.


These are wonderful books, and classics, besides.
