A $1,000,000 Violin Fell… Here’s What Happened
A rare and valuable Guadagnini violin, worth around one million, almost fell during a live concert. In this video, we take a closer look at what really happened, and more importantly, what happens to a violin when something like this occurs. For many musicians, this kind of accident is a nightmare. But from a violin maker’s perspective, there is much more to understand.
