Hermann Ritter: The First International Viola Soloist

Hermann Ritter, despite his accomplishments — he was the first dedicated viola soloist to tour internationally, the first dedicated professor of viola at a European institution, an innovative designer of musical instruments and accessories, and one of the pioneers of musicology — has never been the subject of a biographical work. I'm working to change that, with a book that will expand on each of these points, also including profiles of his students, an overview of his influence on the viola repertoire, and more.
