What the books printed
The Fiddle Fancier's Guide, James M. Fleming. Haynes, Foucher & Co., 1892. Scan 58. Held as more than one scan.
Carcassi, Lorenzo and Tomasso, Florence, 1738—1758. I have seen a number of instruments professing to be by these makers. A few of them were fairly good. This is a name which is, unfortunately, largely used to put into any kind of absurd rubbish which it is thought may be got rid of in a sale room.
Another scan of this book reads the same line with small differences; this is one of the readings.
Same name
- Carcassi, Antonio Felice
- Carcassi, Francesco
- Carcassi, Giovanni
- Carcassi, Lorenzo
- Carcassi, Lorenzo and Tomaso
- Carcassi, Salvatore
Whether any of these is the same person, the books do not say. 2 more Carcassi pages under C.
Same town, same time
