	What has happened to the artistic qualities that were so prevalent in the old Cremona violins, but are missing in violins made today? These new violins truly possess those artistic qualities as were seen on the old masterpieces.					Our State -Wonders in Wood John Sipe made his first violin in 1960.  More than four decades later, this talented luthier is still crafting instruments whose sound will likely resonate as beautifully 300 years from now as it did the first time it was played.  From workshop to stage, he sheds light on the interplay of Physics, wood, varnish, tone and time to show how these delicate yet strong instruments come into being. Join us to behold the stunning craftsmanship of this inspired artisan.
