GUITAR HEROS
The Metropolitan
Museum of Art Bulletin, Winter, 2011. This publication (48 pp.
with 70 fantastic photo illustrations) focuses on the work of John
D’Angelico,
James D’Aquisto and John Monteleone, three Italian-American
luthiers
who worked
in and around New York City from 1905-1995. The
engaging
text,
written by associate
curator Jayson Kerr
Dobney of the museum’s department of musical instruments, puts these
masters'
work into context—with a special focus on Italian and specifically
Neapolitan
instrument making from the 16th to the late 19th
century. There is also a very intriguing
instrument appendix dedicated to the Met’s collection of Italian
violins. Wrappers. $25
