Hi Alex,
Thank you so much for hosting us yesterday at the Art  of Sound Exhibition.  I had a great time and enjoyed meeting the maker  of my violin, David Thomas Meyer.  I feel privileged to have such  intimate access to the origins of my instrument and to have it explained  to me in such exquisite detail.  I think every string player should  have a chance to hear Meyer's presentation about violin making as his  research is pertinent to all instruments.   Mr. Meyer gave me a true  appreciation for how a violin works from a physics perspective, down to  the most minute vibrations of wood.  He showed, via computer imaging  techniques, which parts of the violin are the most resonant and allowed  us to experience a hands-on experiment with producing tones on an actual  sample of wood.  The amount of meticulous scientific detail that Mr.  Meyer puts into his craft results in instruments that sound fantastic.   Many thanks to A. Cavallo Violins for making this all happen!
Best,
Katrin
