A magical night of music at our season-opening concert at Worcester Cathedral  last night. Three choral gems by Duruflé, Haydn & Boulanger, plus the privilege of hearing Elgar's Enigma Variations performed by the superb Meridian Sinfonia symphony orchestra.

But when professional musician Esther Abrami brings hers on an airplane — a violin made in the 19th century by Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume — she’s carrying a precious artifact. “The violin is a piece of art,” she told The Wa
