In this exceptionally practical book Galamian presents his teaching philosophy, including specific advice on posture, technique, interpretation, and recommended practice structure. The acclaimed Itzhak Perlman wrote of his teacher's treatise "This book, Principles of Violin Playing & Teaching, gives us a wonderful insight into Mr. Galamian's very special method of teaching the violin, and I am sure that it will be of great benefit to its readers.
