One of the challenges was the errors made during the translation, which make it difficult to understand what Leopold Mozart really wanted to say. It is always a problem with the translation of such treatises. The Translator should know not only the original language, but also its eighteen century version, and also be familiar with violin technique and its specifics during eighteenth century. Leopold Mozart's Violinshule gives us a better understanding of how violin was played during the eighteen century, which would be helpful for the historical performance.
