The Cooper Collection Volume 3

The Cooper Collection Volume 3

The on-line publication of this third, and final, volume completes my dream of making the bulk of my collection available as a reference and research tool for all those interested in 'Instruments played with a bow'. Over fifty instruments are illustrated with full dimensions and my comments where appropriate. 

Collecting these instruments has given me enormous pleasure over many years and it is my hope that they will, in the future, be the means of providing support for young musicians at the start of their careers.
