    3119 A STUDY OF STYLE AND INFLUENCE IN THE EARLY SCHOOLS OF VIOLIN MAKING CIRCA 1540 TO CIRCA 1800 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Allison A. Alcorn, B.Mus. Denton, Texas December, 1987 Alcorn, Allison A., A Study of Style and Influence in the Ear School of Violin Making circa 1540 to circa 1800. Master of Music (Musicology), December 1987, 172 pp., 2 tables, 31 figures, bibliography, 52 titles. Chapter I of this thesis details contemporary historical views on the origins of the violin and its terminology. Chapters II through VI study the methodologies of makers from Italy, the Germanic Countries, the Low Countries, France, and England, and highlights the aspects of these methodologies that show influence from one maker to another. Chapter VII deals with matters of imitation, copying, violin forgery and the differences between these categories. Chapter VIII presents a discussion of the manner in which various violin experts identify the maker of a violin. It briefly discusses a new movement that questions the current methods of authenti- cation, proposing that the dual role of "expert/dealer" does not lend itself to sufficient objectivity. The conclusion suggests that dealers, experts, curators, and musicologists alike must return to placing the first emphasis on the tra- dition of the craft rather than on the individual maker. o Copyright by Allison A.

  • PART II Measuring a 1716 Violin
    PART II Chapter 5 Measuring a 1716 violin In the summer months of 1816 Count Cozio di Salabue made detailed measurements of some of his instruments. On 29th May 1816 he measured a 1716 Stradivari violin: 1816, 29 mago, Milo. forma (P.G.) misure del mio piu bello e grande V[iolin]o di Ant[oni]o Stradivari del 1716. Ver[ni]ce rossa, prese col Compasso compresi li profili del Coperchio.1 1816, 29th May, Milan, mould (P.G.)2 measurements of my most beautiful and large violin of Antonio Stradivari of 1716. Red varnish, taken with dividers including the profiles [purfling] of the front plate. Giuseppe Baretti’s 1831 Italian-English dictionary translates compasso as ‘a pair of compasses’ and compasso matematico as ‘dividers’. Since Count Cozio is not likely to have wanted to draw circles, it is reasonable to interpret his compasso as indicating a large pair of dividers, possibly with legs which were jointed at their mid-point so that the lower halves could be pivoted inwards towards the vertical. Although the Count’s dividers were sufficiently large to measure across the purfling-to-purfling distance on the lower bout of a violin (c205mm) they were evidently not large enough to allow a single measurement of the full length of a violin’s body length (c356mm) which is why the Count establishes the body-length measurement for an instrument in stages (see later in this chapter).3 It makes very good sense for Count Cozio to have defined the outer limits of his measurements as exact points on the front plate – namely, the outer line of the purfling – leaving the small width of border- wood lying to the outside of the purfling to be measured separately with small callipers or, simply, a rule(r).
