Comprehensive biography of Rudolf Matz (1901-1988), distinguished cellist, teacher and composer. While Matz was a well-known and much-honored member of the artistic community in his native Croatia, Matz’s international reputation is based on his achievement as author-composer of The First Years of Violoncello. This monumental set of volumes is a comprehensive instructional opus in which the three traditionally separate categories of teaching materials – method, etudes and performance literature — are united in a graded and coordinated series of works designed to cover the critical first decade of cello study.
