Broken Guadagnini

Post by wylde8 »

Anybody hear that David Garrett smashed the 1772 Guadagnini he performs with? Apparently he fell down a flight of steps. He says the violin was in a case, but still broke into a bunch of pieces from the fall. David said he will try to get it fixed, but isn't sure if it can be.

yeah, I read that story too. Our newspapers mentioned a Stridivarius, though. Would be sad if such a fine instrument would be lost this way.
