Oe We have in this edition undertaken by the house of Ricordi, developed the innumerable abbreviations of the work, and supplemented an accurate and conscientious transcription with indications for expression, bowing, and Gngering; to facilitate a most profit. able study of this wonderful work. It offers an incomparable model of violin technic for the mechanism of the left hand, and for the bow-aem. Locatelli, having travelled much, settled in Amsterdam where most of his compositions were originally pub- lished. He died there on 1 April 1764. The study and knowledge of the 25 Caprices by Pietro Locatelli, like that of the works of all the old Italian Masters is undoubtedly desirable, and will algo. be found exceedingly enjoy- able, since they hi served as guide to the greatest violinists of the past. We shall consider ourselves well rewarded for the amount of labour it has entailed, if this edition leads to a better knowledge and appreciation of 50 original and famous a violinist as Locatelli Parma, Novenber 1917.
