Description
Excerpt from Famous Violinists and Fine Violins: Historical Notes, Anecdotes, and Reminiscences
Music began for me in what may well be termed a paradise on earth; and often have I thanked Provi dence that, by its means, the joys of this world have almost equalled the sorrows which, alas! Are inseparable from our existence. A lovely country in Warwickshire, not far from the home of Shake speare, a splendid mansion, with beautiful gardens and meadows, stabling for six horses, ponds, and woods of majestic elms and beeches, made up an abode such as can only be found in Merry England. It is natural enough that an intense love of melody should have entered my childish heart with the song of the wild birds and the perfumes of the ?owers. There was music constantly in our house at Lady Wood, and all around us.
