Raising a small child as a woman while travelling 10 months out of the year would, I believe, be something I would not be able or even want to do, although with the amazing example of Leila, I am no longer so sure.

The concept is basically; that the pieces we know and love are made up of scales, arpeggios, and the like.

For many years, the government of Canada has massively supported orchestras and the arts in general.

I am very lucky and grateful to have this living link to a past era, the violin presumably having much more history to it than the later portion that I know.

There are no benefactors in Canada because there is no incentive.

Let me be very honest and just say that if any airline would let me take the violin and the laptop on board I would fly that airline all the time.
