Alban, my heart is aching of for you! How completely dreadful. I understand perfectly how you could overlook the damage and try to make it work, always looking to yourself instead of running to the shop for a Deus ex machina.

Dear Alban, what a horrifying story!
I’m sure that your cello will sound as before when repair is completed; bon courage!
It was lovely to meet you in Dublin; I hope you’ll be back soon again and that you won’t associate your visit with unpleasant memories.
My very best wishes,
Paul (violinist, RTÉNSO…hope you remember me?)

I forgot to mention that it would be worth checking with your Airline/Insurance Cover, if you can get anything towards the cost of repair of your instrument. I used to work for an Airline, and as far as I know, they are somewhat responsible for the safe carriage of goods under the Geneva Convention. Mary

I attended the Concert in Dublin after hearing a 30 second “advertisement” of your playing on our National Radio Station, RTE 1.

It was the most moving Concert I’ve ever been to in my life. Thank you so much. I saw what happened with your Bow, but you took it all in your stride and I was amazed at how quickly you managed to “borrow” the other Bow with little or no disruption, although what a look of amazement on the lady’s face!!

But thank you for an amazing evening. The applause for you and the Orchestra and the Conductor was so warm, it was not surprising, it was an extraordinary evening, one I will never forget. God bless you and your family and your precious musical talent. Mary
