17LETTER FROM DR. JOACHIM
18[Copy].
20My Dear Mr. Courvoisier: I have read the book on Violin Playing you have sent me, and have to congratulate you sincerely on the manner in which you have performed a most difficult task, i.e., to describe the best way of arriving at a correct manner of playing the violin.
22It cannot but be welcome to thoughtful teachers, who reflect on the method of our art, and I hope that your work will prove useful to many students.
24Believe me, my dear Mr. Courvoisier, to be most faithfully yours,
26JOSEPH JOACHIM.
28Berlin, November 3rd, 1894.
30The New and Revised Edition of "Technics of Violin Playing" issued by THE STRAD is the only authorised edition of my work. The several English editions which have all appeared without my knowledge are incomplete and faulty.
