Mysterious disappearance, sudden appearance on sale and a slightly reddish color on one of the parts of the violin related to the legend of the luthier's use of a drop of his beloved's blood mixed with varnish - all this is a fascinating story and was the basis for the great success of the film. Elizabeth Pitcairn is the current owner of this instrument and its musical history created by John Corigliano will be heard with the sounds of the main character himself.
