Attention is paid to both historical and modern instruments, their construction, research and development, their technical and sound parameters, quality and characteristics of individual manufacturers, aesthetic and economic standards, maintenance and tuning. All the information is put into context with the historical role of the instrument in the musical performance art, teaching practice and social life.
