I loved the article. It made me recall my violin teacher suggesting a choice of a few instruments to my parents. Price was an issue and so I got the $150 instrument. A fellow student whose parents were more well off bought their daughter a $600 violin. I think back and know now there was a difference in the timbre, the sound, and it wasn’t just about how much you practiced. I wish I could have known where the instruments were made and by whom. History is fascinating.
What a delightful tale. Made my day.
Another lovely piece, Ed! Really enjoying this series.❤️
