ne Art of Primrose"
Dr. David Dalton is professor emeritus of viola at
Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah (USA). He
took BM and MM degrees in
violin at the Eastman School
of Music where his interest in
viola was awakened by
Francis Tursi. After meeting
William Primrose, he switched
to viola and received his
doctorate in performance at
Indiana University. Dalton
collaborated with Primrose in
writing his memoir Walk on
the North Side and Playing the
Viola, and produced two
documentaries, "A Violist's
Legacy," and "William Primrose, Violist". The two were
co-founders of the Primrose International Viola Archive
(PIVA) at BYU, the largest and most important repository
of materials related to the instrument. Dalton's editions for
viola have been published by C.F. Peters, Oxford, G.
Schirmer, Eschig, Doblinger, and Rarities for Strings. He
served as president of both the American and International
Viola Societies, as well as editor of the AVS Journal.
Retired, he no longer performs as soloist or chamber
musician, but teaches, lectures, researches in PIVA, and
pursues family history.
