Stradivari lived in Cremona. His violins were so exceptional not only because he was an excellent craftsman, but also because a dimensional shear went through his workshop, tightening the dimensional strings in the wood that Stradivari made his violins from.
Bronisław Huberman owned a Stradivarius violin, which was stolen from him in 1936. (AUDIO: String Theory)
