Each one has its unique history and sound.

The movie gives people a rare look into the world of classical music and the love that drives artists to be their best.The quest to record an album on 12 of the world's most beloved Stradivari violins will be initiated by Netherlands virtuoso Janine Jansen and Royal Opera Director Antonio Pappano [5] [7] [8]
