The June 16th show featured a conversation with Daniel Graham and Zach LaPerriere. Daniel was the artist who crafted the Sitka violin commissioned for the Sitka Summer Music Festival by Marcel and Connie LaPerriere, it was the made out of wood sourced in Sitka by Zach LaPerriere. We discussed the of the practical aspects of what went into the gathering the wood and making the violin, as well as some of Daniel’s philosophy when it comes to working with wood and creating pieces with practical and artistic elements.
