Publisher's Synopsis
Violetta and the Venetian Violin is a middle-grade, time-slip fantasy for readers aged ten to fourteen.
One fateful day, Violetta forgets her violin. A minuscule mistake that leads to frighteningly fantastical events. She travels in time, from Sydney 2017, to Venice, 1717. Now, unless she finds the violin before sunrise, she will become trapped in the past forever!
Violetta and the Venetian Violin is a story about unusual friendships, a quest for courage and the transformative power of music. This is a book for musicians, non-musicians and audiences young and old; with historical details and classical music woven into the narrative.
This jacketed hardcover features coloured illustrations by Alexandra Louise Harris, including gold mask images leading to the music.
Music recordings by Alexandra Louise Harris, accompany each book in the series and are available on YouTube, Spotify, iTunes and at https: //www.alexandralouiseharris.com. Sheet music arrangements of Antonio Vivaldi's music, featured in the story, can also be purchased for violinists of all levels.
