A luthier sets the soundpost by ear, sliding it a hair at a time until the top of the violin answers the bow. Move it too far and the whole voice goes dull. No gauge can find that spot. #Luthier

Back at the shop today, getting the soundpost and wolf eliminator 🐺 ❌ adjusted for the trial cello. It's sounding so good, I'm so close to biting the bullet on it 👀

Here in Sheffield, we have a very special tradition at Christmas time, as we gather together to sing our own regional versions of festive songs, passed down through the years. Known as the Sheffield.....

(cont) so of course I tried writing on piano first, then guitar🤦
g) in my defense, the violin was cursed (strings snapped; when I replaced them, soundpost dropped & I live in a small town so it took me months to figure out/teach myself repairs)
h) but the really fascinating part?——

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ONLY DO ONE STRUNG AT A TIME AND DON’T MOVE THE BRIDGE

otherwise the soundpost inside will fall and you’ll need a luthier

if your bridge falls DO NOT REPOSITION IT AND THEN TRY TO TIGHTEN STRINGS, without soundpost In place you can crack top

The fallen soundpost is a good idea. It’s something that is impossible to do without a special tool, so it’s unlikely that anyone besides a luthier will have one handy. It’s also a job that requires a delicate touch.

I asked him if he had any tips on the smashing of the violin at the climax of the piece. He said “do it with love”.

(When I’d broken my first violin I gave him the soundpost. In French and Italian it’s called the soul. He smiled and put it in his wallet.)

An unforgettable experience.

"'The light,' my old friend responded. 'I'm trying to capture the way light filters through the F-holes. Can you imagine? Standing next to the soundpost as a string is plucked or bowed. It must refract the light.'"

In lighter news, I took my violin to the luthier who lives in the forest and after he adjusted the soundpost by about 4mm, my instrument rings out again ♥️

I am almost crying because it feels like I got my voice back.

It still needs other adjustments but I can’t wait to play on it!!

Fun! I'm a violist (non pro). Sure you could have a snapped string (easy), slipped soundpost (fiddly), or broken bridge (trickiest). But what about: bow bugs? warped fingerboard? weird new buzz you can't quite nail down? moved to a different humidity area and it just doesn't sound like it used to?

เพิ่งมาเห็นว่าไวโอลิน(ตัวถูกๆ)ตัวนึงของเรา ไม่มี Soundpost

At least it didn't knock down my soundpost when it fell. It's always scary lmao, it sounds like a gunshot

One of the things that's made Christmas is a weekend trip to Sheffield. Singing Carols at Royal Trads folk club on Saturday 14th followed by the Soundpost festive event in the Winter Gardens on the Sunday. Met with so many people I dearly love who've helped me musically over the last few years too

You at Royal Trads next Saturday? Or any part of Soundpost next Sunday?
December 7, 2024 at 10:31 PM
I'll be up on 14th & 15th December in Sheffield. Lots happening on 15th: all the Winter Gardens Soundpost stuff, Dungworth Carols at the village hall, and the Bradfield Tractor Run.
Plus on 14th we've the Royal Tradition Christmas Party with special guests, The Goblin Band (a few tickets left)!
