"He was a genius already"
"His costume scarcely ever varied"
"So singular and so beautiful"
"My violin should realize a large sum"
"To the virtuosos of violins"
"The turning-point in the history of virtuosity"
"I have 80,000 francs on me"
"Unveiled in all its intact glory"
"Find his majesty's soloist"
"An immense reserve of strength"
"No matter what the price"
"What can we sell this as?"
"The sound kept on coming and coming"
"A run-of-the-mill Strad".
