Ah, my god, this cello, this cellist. <3

Camille Thomas is the latest cellist to be playing the Feuermann Stradivarius, a 1730 instrument with an incredible history—having been in the hands of cellists such as Franchomme, de Munck, Feuermann, Isserlis, Ishizaka, and now Thomas.

This is a wonderful performance of the Largo from Chopin's Sonata, Op. 65, arranged for cello and piano, in Hong Kong.

Qué curioso este paper!

Sonidos en peligro de extinción: la música frente al #CambioClimático: Mendoza-Ponce (2023):

Los #Stradivarius fueron resultado de una maestría del laudero italiano, y consecuencia de un período de enfriamiento en Europa entre los s. XIV y XIX, que causó características acústicas únicas en la madera (...) Las condiciones climáticas están extinguiendo sonidos por la desaparición de los materiales: sucede con ciertos modelos de #guitarras #Fender"

Currently listening to an ACS webinar about the #chemistry of #stradivarius #violin coatings. I've written about the topic before so it's fun to see researchers talking about it on screen :)

Very strange: #Shazam is wrong about the work and the author (assigning to #Schubert a quartet written by #Mozart) but recognizes the tone, tempo and even the performers (#Amadeus Quartett, probably identified thanks to the sounds of their four #stradivarius.)

Très étrange : #Shazam se trompe sur l'oeuvre et l'auteur (attribuant à #Schubert un quatuor de #Mozart) mais reconnaît la tonalité, le tempo et même l'interprète (#Amadeus Quartett, sans doute identifié grâce aux sonorités de ses quatre #stradivarius).

Bought this jacket in Brno 3 years ago, still one of my faves. Especially with the "warmer" winters past couple of years I hardly have to wear anything heavier. Wish there were #Stradivarius stores in Finland...

Bad news for the #snob, good news for the #music: under blind conditions, professional musicians prefer new violins and are unable to distinguish between new and old. #violon #Stradivarius #Science
