Yehudi Menuhin shares with the reader his unique store of understanding about the violin, about how to exercise and practise, and about the techniques of performance. His reflections on the nature and scope of his instrument are profoundly illuminating and his theories on interpretation particularly valuable. William Primrose writes the distinguished monograph on the viola and describes the instrument as 'a violin with a college education'.
