Historical Development and Construction of the Mandolin, hardcover

Woll, Alfred | Over 800 colour photographs|incl. 33 double-sided plates|and 15 scaled plans of|Embergher, Calace, Seiffert ...|The first part of this book deals with the historical development of the|mandolin. Special emphasis is placed on the life and production of the three|leading Italian workshops at the beginning of the 20th century, namely those|of the Vinaccia family, Luigi Embergher and Raffaele Calace. Images of their|most famous and beautiful instruments appear on double-sided plates, and|particulars of their construction are discussed on the basis of many detailed|photographs and scaled building plans. In addition, special attention is paid|to the development of mandolin building in Germany from the end of the 19th|century up to the present day. A whole chapter is devoted to the career of|Reinhold Seiffert. This chapter describes how his new mandolin model came|into being. Alfred Woll complements this discussion by explaining|particularities of his own modern mandolins.|The second part of the book is devoted to the practicalities of mandolin|construction. Based on his forty-year experience as a mandolin builder,|Alfred Woll makes available all the considerations and practical information|necessary to construct a high-quality modern classical soloist model|mandolin. Starting with the criteria for selecting good timber and concluding|with complete blueprints, he uses many informative photographs to explain|every single step. This gives the interested mandolinist insight into how the|instrument comes into being, and also the ambitious luthier valuable|information and practical advice for ensuring the survival of an ancient and|venerable craft.|An appendix contains advice and instructions for the player on how to look|after the instrument, next a chapter about the career of the author, and also|extensive notes and a bibliography.
