William West, Devon

Just a quick email to express by sincere thanks especially to Angharad, and
Cecile for all the time that you have given to me over two visit whilst
choosing a viola. As you know, it was only by chance that I stumbled across
Cardiff Violins whilst having a wonder around the city prior to a meeting.
The guidance, opinions and patience that Angharad gave were greatly
appreciated, and the time taken yesterday trying such a range of instruments
helped reinforce what I first felt when I played “Virginia” by Don Tatem three
weeks ago, in that his instruments have such a wonderful quality and tone.
The decision between “Virginia” and “Geronimo” was certainly a hard one to
make as you know as I agonised over for some time, but, I am looking forward
to spending many happy hours getting to know “Geronimo” and the huge depth of
sound that it has to offer.
