Edinburgh

A visit to Scotland often begins in Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. Edinburgh is an old city with many
important and interesting buildings. After London, Edinburgh is the second city for visitors in Britain.
If you come to Edinburgh by train from the south, the first thing you see when you leave Waverley Station is
Edinburgh Castle. It stands high over the city. Soldiers in kilts take visitors around and tell them the castle’s
story. Edinburgh is a hilly city but it is a good city to visit on foot. After the castle, you can visit more of the Old
Town. Go down the Royal Mile to Holyroodhouse - the Queen’s home when she comes to Edinburgh. It is three
hundred years old.
You can look at the shops on the Royal Mile or on Princes Street in the New Town. Some shops sell the famous
Scottish tartans and you can see the name of the family which goes with each tartan. Near Princes Street is
Charlotte Square, which is very beautiful. There is also the National Gallery of Scotland, with pictures from Scotland
and from many other countries too.
In August, you can visit the Edinburgh Festival, the biggest arts festival in the world with hundreds of different
things to do and see.

Most musicians agree that the best violins were first made in Italy. They were made in Cremona, Italy, about
200 years ago. These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin
makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But they aren’t the same. Musicians still prefer
the old ones. Why are these old Italian violins so special? No one really knows. But many people think they have an
answer.
Some people think it is the age of the violins. They say that today’s violins will also sound wonderful
someday. But there is a problem here. Not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are
special. So age cannot be the answer. There must be something different about Cremona or those Italian violin
makers.
Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. The wood of the violin is very important. It must
be from certain kinds of trees. It must not be too young or too old. Perhaps the violin makers of Cremona knew
something special about wood for violins.
But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way.
Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change
the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understood
more than we do about how to cut the wood.
Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists measured these old violins very carefully. They can
make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old
ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish. Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes
the wood look shiny. It also helps the sound of the instrument. No one knows what the Italian violin makers used in
their varnish. So no one can make the same varnish today.

 There may never be other violins like the violins of Cremona. Their secret may be lost forever. Young
musicians today hope this is not true. They need fine violins. But there aren’t very many of the old violins left. Also,
the old violins are very expensive. Recently, a famous old Italian violin was sold for about $300 000!
