The other day I visited Cremona, and the Museo Stradivari, which houses the tools, templates and works of some of the greatest violin makers ever, Stradivarius, Amati and Guarneri, amongst others. It’s so amazing that they still have the actual things used by the masters three or four hundred years ago, and those are the tools that have made some of the best instruments in the world. Suffice to say, I wish I could try any single one of them, but that is more than likely never to happen in my life, but it was a very inspiring afternoon. Cremona is a small town but very pretty with a brilliant Duomo, anyone who finds themselves in Northern Italy should definitely pay it a visit. And obviously let me know if you happen to end up in Northern Italy!
