Problems of Tone Production in Violin Playing by Carl Flesch

Published by Carl Fischer

Hungarian violinist Carl Flesch (1873-1944) was a student of Jakob Grun in Vienna and Martin Pierre Marsick in Paris, going on to be a well-regarded chamber music performer and soloist. He was also one of the most highly sought-after violin teachers of his day, known for his sensitive, analytical approach that emphasized artistry over virtuosity. His students have included Ivry Gitlis, Ida Haendel, Eric Rosenblith, Max Rostal, and Roman Totenberg. Among Flesch's many method publications still used today are ''Basic Studies for Violin'' (1911), ''The Art of Violin Playing'' (1923-28), and ''The Problem of Tone Production in Violin Playing'' (1931).

Following the publication of the extensive, comprehensive collection "The Art of Violin Playing", Carl Flesch realized he had not yet fully addressed the issue of tone production. Thus, in 1931, he wrote "The Problem of Tone Production in Violin Playing", a short, yet highly specific, exhaustive, and useful treatise providing rules, exercises, and repertory examples concerning the perfection of tone quality in violin playing. Grades 4-6.
