"I lived in the wood until I was slain by the relentless axe. In life I was silent, but in death my melody is exquisite."
( Motto carved on a violin by luthier Gasper Duiffoprugcar)
One of our favorite contests is in Vermont, called the Northeast Fiddler's Contest. It's always really fun, and we meet up with most of our fiddling friends there, because it's so popular. We have also gone to a contest near Lake Champlain, in the northeastern part of Vermont. Sharon placed there.
