Hi Klara,

Ain't it true!

No, actually I don't play a stringed instrument (tho' I did recently buy an
arhu for my wife and like to try it myself too) but I had some lessons with
Kato and visited her courses in London, Oxford and Switzerland. She was very
important to my development as a young musician - and still is.

Do you play the violin too?
