Historical documentary on the life of the greatest violin maker of all time and his life's work, the violin, which made him famous, whose Latinized name is "Stradivarius".
The subject begins with the genesis of bowed string instruments and recalls the masters who formed Stradivari.
The music of Bach, his contemporary, gives the atmosphere of the period to the subject, including "the Chaconne", the Himalayas" of the violinists.
A good book on the subject is; The King's Violins by Jean Diwo.
