I am a novice player, in the UK, but on a visit to Prague 3 years ago I purchased a violin with the name Rudolph Sofron, date 1932. It is an unusually red colour, and many people have remarked that it sounds very good. It stayed in my cupboard for the last three years, but I decided to starting learning in earnest in January this year.

I know very little about violins, and I tried at the time to find out more information without success. I happened across this thread when, by chance, I decided to look him up again.

I am very much enjoying learning on it.
