What reading level is The Heart of Music the Story of the Violin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He wanted to bend over fine, silken wood, to fashion it deftly, dexterously, into beautiful forms, and to give those forms sweet voices that could charm away the melancholy which often seized him. The finer, tenderer, more concentrated styles of art were what found an echo in his heart. He shrank with jangled nerves from the first mighty boom of each huge instrument he had been obliged to assist in making. His head ached with the distressing bigness of the thing, even as his bones and muscles a...ched with the unwonted and extreme strain put upon them in his manual work each day. He grew monthly more slender, more nervous, more obviously a creature of spirit and visions, rather than mere heavy flesh. The work told cruelly upon him, bending his slight shoul- ders, and painting unwarranted lines in his face.
[205 ] The Heart of Music ^X> Yet still the bitterest part of it all was his thwarted ambition.
