The Great Cellists by Margaret Campbell

In its early history, the cello was a genuine 'bass' violin that came in three sizes and from the thirteenth century was played side by side with viols and later violins. This title presents a history of the lives and work of the cello's great performers and teachers, since the emergence of the solo instrument in the seventeenth century.
Margaret Campbell, who began her career as a Fleet Street journalist, is the author of Dolmetsch: The Man and His Work, Henry Purcell: Glory of His Age and Andrew Lloyd Webber: Married to Music. A former editor of the British Journal of Music Therapy, she has been a regular contributor to The Strad and other musical journals, and has written regularly for the Independent.
