The Baroque violin is doing well as our “trainer” instrument.
We used it for a classical concert at A430 in August (2nd violin on the recording), it was played for a Purcell concert last month and it will be used for a JS Bach event on Nov 17. The players seem happy with it and it has a nice tone that fits in well with the other strings.
Here’s a very live sampling from the classical concert. Haydn Symph. 104 arranged by his contemporary Salomon. Click here for mp3
