Cardiff Violins saved me from a musician’s worst nightmare: realising in rehearsal, on the day of a concert, that my cello had been damaged in transit! I can’t thank them enough for lending me a lovely instrument for the concert and being so calm when faced with a very, very agitated cellist in their shop. The repairs are first rate, as is the new bridge, and the soundpost adjustment has the instrument sounding better than it has in many years.
