I have a complete obsession with violins, I think they are beautiful instruments. The sound to me is so raw and moving. I really like bands w/ unusual instruments [arcade fire] because it gives them such a unique sound and unsurprisingly i am drawn to bands who have a violin in their list of instruments [ horse feathers]. I personally have always wanted to learn the violin, my grandpa played for the majority of his life- i never heard him play and I wish I had. I have his violin now- of coarse i cant play it, it's very old so I think if I were to learn I would use a new one. I want to photograph the violin and its case because there is alot of wear i think it would capture it perfectly in black and white, film obviously. A friend and I were having a great conversations about bands and the sounds we like- we have different taste but definitely over lap sometimes so it's nice to discuss. we got on the topic of violins and she admitted to always wanting to play the cello and I the violin, we would produce fine music if we had any ambition :)
