Ron1 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I'm anxious to attend a Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra outdoor concert tomorrow evening in which the guest soloist will be Yang Liu playing the Stradivari 'Lady Tennant', I believe for the first time in public since it was sold at Auction last April. Hope it don't rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Option1 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Have a great time Ron, although it won't be the first time he's played it in public. He played the violin at the Kennedy Center back in June, shortly after it came into his care. http://www.playbillarts.com/news/article/2224.html Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron1 Posted August 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Well, the outdoor concert was excellent, although at my distance from the stage, it would have been visually impossible (for an expert) to tell if the violin was a Strad or any other instrument. Also, the outdoor speaker systems probably do not convey the truest sound. But all-in-all it was a great experience, and very enjoyable. They again stated that it was the first time the violin had been played publicly in a "symphonic orchestral" setting. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
