Biddulph's influential exhibition "The Violin Masterpieces of Guarneri del Gesù" at New York's Metropolitan Museum was hailed as a major contribution to violin scholarship. This led to the publication of Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù, a ground-breaking study of Guarneri's life and work. We have also published two important books about Antonio Stradivari, as well as a collection of photographs of musicians by Clive Barda, entitled "Performance!". Biddulph Recordings has been hailed by Musical America as "the best historical label in the world". Our extensive catalogue features performances by the great musicians of the early 20th century, including Jascha Heifetz, Fritz Kreisler, Yehudi Menuhin, William Primrose and Pablo Casals. |
