#60 & 1/2 The Violin

Kudos and good karmic vibes to whomever it was that said; "lets make an hour glass shaped box of spruce attach a maple neck barely 20 cm long and string it with the intestines of sheep. We'll tune it to perfect fifths and tickle it with a bow strung with...what else but the mane hair of a horse."

What's incredibly fucking beautiful to me about music is that someone so wanted to express themselves through sound and melody that they fashioned this and so many other great instruments to do so.

It's a tangible reflection of the immense creativity and passion in the construction and relating of music; both the sound we hear and the way it makes us feel.
