Inspired by the comments on a previous post, I am planning to write at length about amateur classical music in Britain. Over to you...Such was the positive response to the post I wrote last week about playing chamber music that I have decided to write a larger piece for the paper about Britain's amateur classical music scene – which, judging from your comments on that post, is both very much alive and kicking and less celebrated than it should...

German-Slovak Julia Fischer, who nearly opted for a career as a pianist, now shines in the constellation of top young violinists. She and her gifted pianist, Martin Helmchen, capture the sunny nature of the three youthful sonatinas, where the challenge is not primarily technical but musical: how to maintain their buoyant charm. The late Rondo Brillant D895, on the contrary, has a dark portentousness in the opening andante, while the exuberant...

We’ve seen a billion different electric guitar designs, but rarely do you see someone trying to design a modern-looking violin. Well, an Austrian designer named Gerda Hopfgartner has come up with the Gavari Semi-acoustic Violin, inspired by feminine curves, modern yachts and fashion corsets. If this Gavari Semi-acoustic Violin even sounds half as good as it looks, we’re going to be in for a real musical treat.

Sound the horns: violin soloist Elizabeth Pitcairn and her red violin (which would be THE red violin) are coming to the Bay Area. And they're playing (we say "they" because she refers to the violin as "her partner" and "soul mate") pretty much the most iconic/recognized violin concerto ever written: Vivaldi's Four Seasons. The storied violin (a Red Mendelssohn Stradivarius of 1720 and the inspiration for the feature film, The Red Violin) was...

I was in New York City recently and noticed there was a line out the door at the welfare office.That’s not unusual in these hard times. What was unusual, however, was that everyone in line seemed to be extremely well dressed – Armani suits, silk ties, wingtips. An additional oddity -- to a man they had their pants pockets hanging out, like the guy in the Monopoly game. So I walked over to see what was going on.“What’s going on?” sputtered the...
