There are moments, many moments throughout life, that simply cannot be rushed through. Each step, each look, each clasp of hands, is something to be fully experienced and savored.
They knew this.

#TIL that in the #Baroque period musicians used smaller #violins for higher notes -like recorder consorts - as higher positions weren't part of the normal playing practice yet. In 1756, Leopold Mozart notes that these small violins have become obsolete, due to progress in #violin technique, and may be used for children to learn.

there are now two dozen violins in my #PirateLuthier logbook. Eight of them are in house and ready to play so if anybody in #Oxford needs to borrow a #fiddle (good enough for #folk or amateur #orchestra) do get in touch. (bows and cases are limited, so will be easier to help out ppl who still have those eg because their #violin broke)
