I wondered if I could pick out 'his' guitar before reading any more, and in fact I did. It's a wonderful exhibit, and the instruments all are quite beautiful.<br /><br />I'd been meaning to pass along <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/17/arts/music/stradivarius-sound-bank-recording-cremona.html" rel="nofollow">this article,</a> which also is about stringed instruments.
