Hey friends!

"Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!" 

Okay, now, i want to tell you about 3 Super Violins. I called them super because of their fantastic price!
Check this out from rank 3. . .

The Lady Tennant-Lafont Stradivarius

The Lady of Tennant-Lafont Stradivarius is an antique violin made by the Italian Antonio Stradivari in 1699.What makes this violin so expensive??
  • Lady Tennant was once owned by the famous 19th century violinist, Charles Philippe Lafont
  • After the death of Lafont, Lady tennant Stradivarius belonged to Sir Charles before he gave it to his wife in 1900.
  • That's why the violin name is "The Lady Tennant-Lafont Stradivarius", because it was owned by Lafont, Lady Tennant, and made by Stradivarius!
  • Charles Philippe Lafont
  • On April 22, 2005, the Lady Tennant sold for a record US$2,032,000 in New York and was presented on loan to violinist Yang Liu!
 In 2009 it was given on loan to Belgian violinist Yossif Ivanov.

Rank 2. . . .

 Del Gesu made this violin from Tsar Alexander II of Russia.In 2008, Sotheby's New York auctioned off the Del Gesu and fetched 4 million dollars. After the bidder got the violin, violinist who played the violin was an Israeli Pinchas Zuckerman in Moscow Conservatory.

Vieuxtemps Guarneri
         The most expensive violin in our world also made by del' Gesu in 1741. It's name is from  Henri Vieuxtemps after he bought it in 1800. The violin has a nickname too. Do you know it's name?? "MONALISA", because of it's perfection. Now, the violin is a precious collection of Chicago's Bein and Fushi.
