Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Maurice not only presents us with a very clearly documented account of this important work, but evokes warm, human glimpses of all the protagonists ... This fascinating book will stir violists from their habitual mindset and encourage them to look at this canon of their repertoire with new eyes.
