The movie has wonderful music but the story is unpredictable, not credible. The screenplay is just bad and the actors can't save the movie (and are not well worked either), though Antti and Björn (especially this latter one) are good in their roles. Karin's caracter is very shallow and flat. I still enjoyed the movie for it's calm, beautiful scenes and the good music.

Scandi Secrets Sparseness and the Strad
italyvacanza5 September 2019
The Violin Player
3 main characters
Karin - the violin player who can't play anymore so teaches
Antii - the student
Bjorn- Karin's former conductor and mentor
No need to provide plot outline; it's available elsewhere and not too complicated. Shot with a lot of close-ups with the background out of focus. signifies, perhaps, the future is unknown for all three. A sensory experience - the music is beautiful; Karin's country house is beautiful - snow, ice, brittle, like Karin; the Strad is beautiful - Antii smells it, and you can almost smell it too. Curiously, though it's not an emotional experience. The three main characters are not very likeable; it's hard to feel for them. Psychologically, though it's very intriguing; who is using who. They all take from each other but give very little in return. Their obsessions are intertwined. Overall, a fine film and worth a look.

Josef Jan Dvorak violin, a good violin for beginners.
pd-4002912 March 2022
Delicate sounds, more magnificent student performance.
That is a "Josef Jan Dvorak" violin. This violin may come from Creek Slovakia. Unlike most violin beginner models. This violin has taken to enhance a musician skill by its warm and soft sounds, the prize is sitting down below 30,000 bath.
As far as I am concerned, the basic note range is considerably powerful as a professional violin. But the high note is hard to express with a vibrant sound (or maybe that is a result of my skill). So the same as other violins. You can volume down the annoyance of the sound by using practice mutes. So the loud sound won't bother others. That is particularly useful when you are living in an apartment.
The violin case is a cream color, so there are concerning point about it will getting dirty easily. Anyways, With providing a pair of shoulder straps so is convenient for outdoor performance. Users can put 2 bows and one violin inside the case. That is sensible because sometimes your favorite bow is accidentally unused, so you have another bow to use.
