You want to know what’s going to be here, right? Several different themes, a different one popping up each day. Apart from new MP3s and videos, there’ll be posts about violin music, all sorts of violin ideas, anecdotes from musicians (believe me, I’ve heard a few), musical heros - what can we really learn from artists of the past?, the much-requested violin tips, and of course more of my travelblog. There’s a category list on the left hand menu bar that you can use to navigate. And the best of the rest is here.
