Episode 48: Woodworms and the Three S’s? Luthier Paul Becker discusses violin maintenance, restoration, and tonal adjustment

- Upcoming Events: September 7 – master class for the PeakHarmonic Youth Orchestra in Colorado Springs, September 9 – Beethoven Concerto with the Colorado Springs Philharmonic, September 12 and 13 – Tchaikovsky Concerto with the Boise Philharmonic - Inquiries from my Inbox: lilrose09 asks for advice about left-hand pizzicato.

- Random Musical Thought: composer Paul Dukas says “There is no such thing as new music – there are only new musicians” and composer Igor Stravinsky says “Modern music does not exist. We speak in a different language from that of our ancestors but say the same thing – or express them differently.” - A conversation with my own luthier Paul Becker.
