Welcome to our spring edition of JSI NOTES, Johnson String Instrument's news magazine and recommended products catalog! This issue focuses on our connections with professional musicians, teachers, and students in New York. Read about a young cellist at the Special Music School in Manhattan, Broadway string players' instruments, JSI's rental programs in New York schools, and information on adult chamber music-making throughout the world. Also in this issue, read an article by our head luthier Marianne Ganzer discussing a violin restoration currently underway in our workshop. In addition, we have featured some of the most requested, best reviewed, and best valued items in our shop, as recommended by professionals, teachers, students, and parents. We hope you enjoy browsing for items that will also work for you whether it is a different set of strings to help you achieve just the right sound, a reliable and comfortable shoulder rest, a fabulous new stand light, a bow that best matches your instrument, or, thanks to our new extended payment plans, an upgrade to a finer instrument! We look foward to hearing from you and further serving your instrument and music needs. Truly yours, All of us at Johnson's |
