Iron violinist and pencilsharpenerviolin

November 25, 2005 at 11:36 AM

Last year we played with an amateurorchestra in the big concerthall Rudolfium in Prague, Czech republic. We played 1th celloconcerto of Shostakovitsch with the fisrt celloplayer of the Royal Concertgebouw orchestra Godfried Hoogeveen and the 8th symfony of Dvorak. But the hall was sounding like a church with a too long echo. On the long stairs uphill too the old city I found this iron violinist made of bolts and screw nuts and rings and pieces of iron. Also I found a pencilsharpener on that bridge.
