'1 can 't tell you how many times I've been asked if the viola I play is an old Italian instrument. Ease of playability, a tremen dously rich sound, projection, the ability to blend, andpersonality all combine to give me the viola I never thought I'd own, old or new: a 1995 Anthony Lane. , Ms. Linda Ghidossi-DeLuca has recorded rhe firsr rhree Suites for Solo Cello by J .S. Bach on her Lane viola. This CD is available at her website: www.violapower. bigstep.com.
