It is currently owned by the Nippon Music Foundation, who has loaned the instrument to a number of prominent cellists.[3]
BackgroundEdit
The De Munck-Feuermann, while labelled 1710, was made during Stradivari's "late period". It owes its nicknames to two notable owners and players of the instrument, cellists Ernest de Munck (acquired in 1869[3]) and Emanuel Feuermann (acquired in 1934[3]), the latter being considered one of the greatest cellists of the 20th century.[1] After Feuermann's death in 1942, the instrument was acquired by American collector Russell B. Kingman, and then sold to cellist Aldo Parisot in 1956.[3]
