Yes, it’s modeled after the Strand formerly owned by Joshua Bell. Kate Rickenbacker of Black Mountain made it.

[@tombristowe846]

That was lovely. What is the interesting and different looking violin that the lady on the left is playing?

[@StephanieQuinnMusic]

That’s Paula’s. Built nearby in Black Mountain by Kate Rickenbacker. If you want to know more scroll up the comments about two weeks and it has the name of the copy it’s of.

[@willchandler6545]

,violinist here from hendersonville, how can I get on board.

[@StephanieQuinnMusic]

Hi Will, you can read my channel notes, & contact me via my website.

[@lucybascobert818]

Where can this sheet music be found?

[@StephanieQuinnMusic]

Online! Google the name of the piece and the arranger.

[@elizabethannegrey6285]

Some Irish underpinnings?

[@alanwittert2169]

Jay Ungar composed this tender, lilting, deeply moving piece as part of the soundtrack for the Ken Burns documentary series, The Civil War. (T'warnt nothin' civil about it!) It's not a Civil War tune but it's probably more popular (for good reason) than any from that period. Just gets in our soul, doesn't it (Irish or not).

[@irenesupica5571]

Takes me back to the series. It actually makes me sad thinking about the suffering of the war, but it is achingly beautiful. Thank you, ladies!

[@momoma533]

Whats this kind of fingerboard?

[@StephanieQuinnMusic]

Violins are works of art that music can be made. The fingerboard can be shaped however the builder / artist wants.

[@momoma533]
