A neat story:
Several yrs ago my little great niece asked Santa for a violin. Knowing what this entailed, "Santa" took her time. A yr passed & my gr niece again lamented,
"I didn't get my wish . . . Santa didn't bring me a violin!" Santa then took that as a "sign," & brought the violins all wrapped up. They were the hit of Christmas at Who-ville that yr.
Lessons ensued & then dropped.
"These violins are too small!" Santa next heard. More time passed. The request came again, "Santa promised bigger violins last Christmas!" She sure did. Santa did some research into them, but was having a hard time deciding until . . .
one day students came w/ a purple violin & a green bow.
The decision wasn't hard after that . . . ;-)
Wanna know where to get them? Try CrystalCello (or www.crystalcello.net),
but get DOMINANT Brand Strings!
(They not only sound better, but stay in tune longer).
Let me tell you, they were the hit of Who-ville again (even in the summer).
