Template:DMCA The Ex-Marsick Stradivarius of 1715 is a violin named after Belgian violinist and teacher Martin Pierre Marsick (1847–1924), who owned the instrument made by Antonio Stradivari of Cremona. The instrument, valued at approximately US$8 million,[1] was purchased in 1999 by David L. Fulton who loaned it to violinist James Ehnes, who bought it from Fulton a decade later.[2]
At a pre-concert talk at Colston Hall in Bristol, England, on 28 November 2005, James Ehnes took pains to differentiate the instrument he was playing from that played by David Oistrakh.[citation needed] Ehnes was playing a 1715 Stradivarius formerly owned by Marsick, while Oistrakh played the Marsick Stradivarius of 1705.
