This book tells the reader how the beautiful sound in a great musical instrument is accomplished. It is the only book of its kind & scope ever written. The musicians & instrument makers who have read it say: "empowering to read," "a revelation which enlightens the understanding about why great musical instruments sound as they do," "Blows the door wide open showing an entire undreamt world known only by the greatest instrument makers of the past," "a bible of insights about sound for musicians & instrument makers," "too valuable to not be on the workbench of anyone interested in making musical instruments." Written in plain English, it focuses on the Thirteen Tonal Principles & the art of tuning & selecting wood. It also includes two groups of essays which discuss the way of thinking needed to bring all the principles together in an integrated whole. Public libraries, music libraries, & libraries in schools, colleges, & universities especially will want this book on their shelves to serve the keen interest in the general population about this subject.

Most books on instrument making dedicate all of one or two pages about matters relating to sound. This treatise focuses, above all else, on how to think about sound just as the most famous musical instrument makers did during the "golden age of sound" between 1450 and 1840. You will be introduced to the hidden knowledge--13 acoustical principles--of what to do to enhance sound while making a musical instrument. These principles can be applied to any type of musical instrument in order to build sounds of extraordinary beauty.

Musica getutscht (Basel, 1511) is the earliest printed treatise on musical instruments in the West. Written by a priest and chapel singer named Sebastian Virdung, it provided rudimentary instruction on playing three instruments: the clavichord, the lute and the recorder. This early 'do-it-yourself' manual of instruction not only tells us about music-making in that era, it also illumines other aspects of society in the years just before the Reformation. Its author communicates in a popular style, choosing a mixture of media: a written text in the guise of an informal conversation, coupled with woodcut illustrations and visual aids. Enthusiasts of early music and its performance as well as historians of art, society and the German language will welcome Beth Bullard's substantial introduction and annotations, which help explain the text of this important work and its place in intellectual history.
