Founded in 1889, the magazine provides information, photographs and reviews of instruments, related feature articles and news, and information about concerts.[1] The magazine offers practical advice on technique, profiles of leading performers, and information on master classes and the craft of instrument makers such as luthiers.[2] It also includes articles about orchestras and music schools.[3]
The magazine's name references the common abbreviation for the famous 17th–18th-century Stradivarius family of luthiers and their coveted and valuable instruments.
