Did you really see Veit’s violin or someone told you about it? I’ve been told that he burnt it himself, but it’s hard to believe, isn’t it?

And, I’ve always heard that the concert was never played with an orchestra, what you say opens a window for hope to recover it since Veit seems to have burnt the only copy of the score!

Veit’s instrument can be found in the possession of one of Vienna’s antiquarians, who doesn’t know about its tragic history.

The Concerto for Violin and Orchestra will never again be heard by human ears, until the day comes where a girl with true appreciation of music finds this beautiful instrument and brings consolation to the spirit of Veit who still resides within it, haunting the antiquarian’s house every night.

Hopefully someday we’ll hear the story of such a girl.

It would be interesting to see Let turning into a -Liszt style- 18th Century pop star and have thousands of female followers and make Lady Eberle green with envy
