About

Giuseppe Tartini (1692–1770) made history both as an outstanding composer and
as an exceptional music theorist. Especially after he began to devote himself to
speculative reflections of music, Tartini seems to have been searching for harmony
between music theory (which he studied in depth, even reaching back to ancient
concepts of music) and musical practice (his daily routine as composer and violinist
at St Anthony’s Basilica in Padua and as violin teacher). The present 2nd volume of the
series focuses on both Tartini’s musical language and his theoretical deliberations.
