Cello Story 大提琴

米特裡-瑪律凱維奇從弗洛倫斯-W-塞德（Florence W. Seder）的法文譯本中摘錄了他的序言（或稱 "前奏"）： 歷史、事實和個人軼事在這裡交織在一起，提供了一個關於樂器的完整故事。願本書能給您帶來樂趣，幫助您充分瞭解大提琴，並引導您像我一樣熱愛它。通過閱讀本書，我們可以肯定他已經充分實現了自己的目標。他具備這樣做的最高資質。瑪律凱維奇是一位頗負盛名的演奏家，也是巴黎高等音樂學院和謝爾蓋-拉赫瑪尼諾夫音樂學院的教師。他還對音樂學有著濃厚的興趣，曾編輯出版過許多作品。本書分為三個部分： 樂器》追溯了自古以來大提琴和大提琴弓的歷史；《演奏家》講述了歷史上大提琴演奏家的軼事，並有很長的篇幅介紹了馬凱維奇的朋友皮亞蒂戈爾斯基；《大提琴的偉大時刻》介紹了大提琴曲目的發展"

原文簡介:
Translated from the French by Florence W. Seder, Dimitry Markevitch concludes his preface, or Prelude as he calls it: "History, fact and personal anecdote blend here to provide a complete story of the instrument. May this book entertain you, help you to know the cello to the fullest, and lead you to love it as I do." Reading the book confirms that he has amply accomplished his aims. His qualifications for doing so are of the highest. Markevitch is a performer of considerable note and a teacher at both the Ecole Normale de Musique and Conservatoire Serge Rachmaninoff in Paris. He also has a keen interest in musicology and has edited many works for publication. The book is divided into three parts: "The Instrument," tracing the history of the cello and cello bow from earliest times, "The Performers," anecdotes of historical cellists plus a long section on Markevitch's friend Piatigorsky, and "Great Moments for the Cello," development of cello repertoire.
