I came across this selection, and unbelievable ambience, hall presence.  I have no idea of the individual
selections there in, so please forgive me if any offend.

Here is another one with incredible ambience. The hall is just huge and one can "hear it". Instruments are nice as well.
If one does not perceive the ambience, then one has some work to do.

I posted the links below before in this string, but added for comparison to when she was ~17.

Here is a selection in which a 1713 Stradi is compared to a 1743 Guarneri. Of course both are world class violins.
This selection is good for testing the resolving power of one's system/venue in the midrange (without bass/lows
present).

Cheers and enjoy.

Steve,
Quite interesting and much to admire in what such artisans accomplished. It did make me curious about preservation and restoration of violins and, of course, utube has videos about that.

Hi Nick,

Yes, I was also wondering about preservation, and how much, if any, of the great characteristics have been altered when restoring such fine instruments. Another question to me is what strings is she using in the violins? What about each violin sounding different from the same manufacturer?

Did she use the same bow with each instrument since that affects the sonics, at least from someone who owns a hundred grand violin and has accompanied Itzhak Perlman once told me. I assume what he said was true.

Here is another selection that I think is tough to reproduce. See what you guys think about its quality.

Cheers and thanks for the great questions/comments Nick.
