"... the 300-year-old Leonardo da Vinci Stradivarius violin, valued as
high as $5 million, [was] pitted against a slimly played violin that
Nagyvary crafted in just six weeks and completed in August 2003.

In all scores from the audience – whether among those who considered
themselves trained musicians or those who are average concert goers – the
new Nagyvary violin ranked slightly higher than the ancient
Stradivarius."
