But as the driver sent by our gracious host, Mr. Li Shu, pointed his BMW 750 Li north away from Shanghai, we realized that there were other plans for us. Tomorrow, we will visit the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, where I will be lecturing about violin varnishing and showing a rare Guarn...

Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Melina - Joint Day. Have you ever prepared a joint perfectly only to find it completely unmatching the next day when you wanted to glue it? Well, cutting the c-bout notches out before doing the joint will help the wood to release most of the tensions and probably prevent that kind of undesirable effect! This is the culmination of Melina's work at Alf Studios. Wednesday, April 4, 2012. Melina - Peaceful Moment. The Price Doria del Gesu that I am copying. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
