Once again this year, there is the opportunity not only to marvel at some of the historical exhibits, but also to listen to them. Violinist Martin Eidenschink will be playing the historic Mittenwald violins on certain dates, eliciting the most beautiful tones from them and inviting you to a special kind of sound experience. Along the way, Eidenschink has all sorts of interesting facts to tell about the influence of Mittenwald violin making over the last few centuries. The sound experience is offered in two thematically different variations.
Start is at 16:00, duration approx. 35 minutes.
Today Martin Eidenschink plays a violin by Ludwig Neuner (1897) and talks about the time Edward Elgar spent in Werdenfelser Land, where you can listen to the wonderful sounds of the violin made by the internationally acclaimed Mittenwald master violin maker Ludwig Neuner (1840-1897) in 1897 in an intimate concert atmosphere. At this time, the composer Edward Elgar (1857-1934) spent several years with his wife Alice in Werdenfelser Land for a summer retreat.
The sound experience is an additional, free offer for individual guests. Here you can listen to a violin player and ask questions about the different sound facets of the Mittenwald violin. Registration is not required! Due to the limited space available, groups of more than 6 people cannot take advantage of this offer. However, group tours can be arranged with the museum.
