“Echoes of Tartini: New Essays in Theory and Practice” brings together performers, music theorists and music historians to provide fresh perspectives on Giuseppe Tartini, one of the most important musicians and teachers of the late Baroque period. The book maps Tartini's influence across geographical regions—resonating outwards from Italy to France, Russia, Central Europe and beyond—and across time, notably documenting his lasting impact on violin pedagogy and acoustical theory. A somewhat liminal figure, Tartini's music and thought exemplify both Baroque sensibilities and nascent Enlightenment ideals; he lived and worked in one declining empire and in the borderlands of another; and his pedagogical innovations, while rooted in the aesthetics of his time, continue to resonate through the ages. “Echoes of Tartini” reflects on Giuseppe Tartini's work, the complex world he inhabited and his rich legacy.
