How can that be? In an absorbing and illuminating narrative, Toby Faber explores this mystery, linking Stradivaris life with six of his most important instruments and following them as they are bought and sold, played and collected down the centuries. Its a tale of dedication and disappointment, of meticulous forgeries and unscrupulous dealers, of extravagant talent and reckless generosity, of obsession, passion and fame. Ultimately, it is the story of how skill and perseverance enabled one man to reach for, and sometimes achieve, perfection. Vissza
