THUNDER BAY — A musician who grew up in Thunder Bay has been awarded the use of a famous violin that was made over 250 years ago, and after just 10 days he's already "in love with it."
"It's a gorgeous instrument. It stood out to me immediately when I was going through the selection process and picking out which instrument I wanted to choose for myself," Lewis told TBnewswatch in an interview Wednesday.It was crafted by Januarius Gagliano in Milan, Italy, 265 years ago, and was donated to the council by a donor who prefers to be identified only as Mrs. Miller.
Lewis said that when he picked up the Gagliano it "spoke" to him because it's a powerful instrument, yet it's easy to play. "But at the same time it's also a violin, and I've been holding violins almost my entire life. There's this funny sense that it's so second nature, but at the same time I just have to be so incredibly careful with it, not dropping it, not exposing it to heat, always keeping it right with me when I travel."
