Earlier the same year Lars had acquired the headstone from his grandfather´s grave, which was to be disposed of following the construction of a bigger family grave. Of exquisite quality and blackness the stone probably came from the deep quarries of Northern Skåne. The use to which Lars would put this splendid material now became clear to him: the size was right, and he would turn it into the first - and only - playable stone violin the world had ever seen or heard. A fascinating thought: what did primary rock - Mother Earth - sound like? Would it be possible to capture in a single instrument the sound of which we all form part? |
