Re: Stolen Strad returned (no mando content)
That's a great story. I mentioned it in this thread [1], along with a few other stolen/lost instrument stories. I've actually read some crazy stories over the years, but i can't seem to remember others.
I lived next door to the Manhattan School of Music for a few years and i heard about somebody getting something stolen. I mentioned to a student in my building and she freaked out, even tho the victim was somebody she didn't know. Just the thought of having her violin stolen. And at least a few students told me stories of their parents mortgaging their house, withdrawing retirement savings, etc to buy them a cello or violin. Crazy micro-world.
