“I am so grateful and honored that the Stradivari Society has granted me the long-term use of the Pietro Guarneri violin … ” Joshua has told The Violin Channel.

“Playing such a high caliber instrument really opens up so many more ways for me to express myself as a musician, and I am so thankful to both my patron and the Society for believing in me,” he has said.
