1seventy-two parts, is to be found. Most subsequent authors have reproduced it, but the musical world owes it primarily to the ingenuity of Bagatella. Beyond this, the work is somewhat meagre. The Edition of 1883 is an exact reproduction of that of 1786, and of the two German translations, the first is perhaps the better, the second being more an adaptation than a translation. Bagatella was born in Padua, circ. 1750, and died in the early part of this century.

9This little work resembles in its construction the "Fiddler's Handbook" (No. 2), in that it is to a great extent a trade publication, all beyond p. 16 being advertisements of the author's "Premier Violin Strings." The sixteen pages which give the title to the pamphlet, however, contain an interesting description of the processes by which strings are manufactured from the intestines of lambs. The work also contains notes on the choice and preservation of strings, on resin, and on silk and metal strings for violins. It is a useful little pamphlet.
