I mean, when this fiddle was made, Beethoven himself was 9 years old!

I have vivid memories as a child of feeling trapped within a never-ending daily grind of scales, arpeggios and etudes for what purpose I could not fathom.

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

When you arrive at your destination, pay absolutely no attention to the thing people call jetlag.

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.

Until the age of 13 or so, (sometimes later) most children with any talent at all can ride on only that, until it clicks in their minds that what they are actually doing technically is virtually impossible.

Naturally, I was a bit of a curiosity, being the first hydrogen peroxide ingestion patient they had ever seen.

I am a big fan of Canadian drugstores.

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.

I thought that maybe it is not so much, as he seems to think, that the world loses interest in female performers after they hit a certain age, than the performers lose interest in the world.

Although I do not have a family, I have eyes, ears and imagination, and know, as most people know, that the importance of one's children is paramount.

I had been playing since I was 2 years old, never remembering a life without music, always playing everything naturally and mostly by ear, and all the grownups wanted were more scales and drudgery out of me.

More importantly to me, if this unusual album cover is responsible for even a few more people hearing and loving these incontestably great works of Bach, then to me it is all worthwhile.

At 18 months, I breathed a bunch of peanuts into my lungs in a bout of surprise - apparently I stuffed my face, went for a ride on my tricycle and fell off.

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.

Let Canadian people who want to give money to orchestras, arts organizations, and the like, do so TAX FREE!

There is no earthly reason why a solo string instrument or voice, having the possibility to play or sing pure intonation, should want, or try, to be tempered.

However, the thought hit me that this was a pretty pathetic way to kick the bucket - being accidentally poisoned during a photo shoot, of all things - and I started weeping at the idiocy of it all.

Our dad was a great guy and we will never forget him.
