It is hard to believe that this small instrument, made of simple pieces of wood cut out and glued together, consisting of only four cords, and whose sound range and volume are relatively low, has acquired such prominence in the world of music. The prodigy is one of the incomprehensible phenomena of the history of mankind!
The violin, which developed from its primitive form of fiddler’s instrument to accompany singing and dancing, reached an unequaled level of perfection in only a few decades. It became, in the hands of great musicians, the preferred instrument for expressing creative imagination.
The violin indeed was to prove itself both as a solo and as a concert instrument.
