Violin stolen in pub ‘was my voice’ says London musician

“A instrument to a musician is much more than an object, more friends,” he says.

The instrument, which was more than £ 150,000, was stolen from a North London Pub, a memory of Mr. Ibanez, a memory of the musician.

Mr. Ibanez, a member of London’s Philharmony Orchestra, said the violin was “voice”.

He continued: “It takes some time to overcome. I don’t think I’m overcome yet. You should call other tools to try and find your voice, but frankly connected to this instrument.”

The violin was produced in 1740 by the famous instrument manufacturer Lorenzo Carcassi in Florence.

While Mr. Ibanez had dinner with a friend, he was stolen from Marquess Tavern in Canonbury Street in Islington on the evening of February 18th.

Mr. Ibanez reported the theft to the met police that evening.

“The violin was always with me, and then it wasn’t about leaving, Iba said Ibanez. “Completely heartbreaking.

“I spent eight years before theft, and from the university, my first professional auditions saw a large number of high and low, bad moments and good moments.

“A musician’s instrument is much more than an object, more of a friend.

“It comes with you all over the world and allows you to convey something bigger.

“Your voice really happens, so a edge of the real monetary value was really invaluable to me.”

Mr. Ibanez announced how the violin was played by a German businessman, whom the violin was “an incredible music lover”.

“He saw a video I played and decided to buy the instrument for me to play, which is very generous.” “This is the truth of most classical musicians.

“These things are so valuable that it would be very difficult to have one, so we trust the generosity of these people.”

Mr. Ibanez said he was still trying to deal with the loss of the instrument.

“I do my best to go there and play music in the best way, but frankly you have to deal with all the losses inside and.”

The violin has a unique property-a small heart in the back of the slide on the top of the entertainment.

Ibanez, “People in the house in a pawn shop, a second -hand shop, antiques, markets, if they bought, please do the right thing and brought forward, this statement has seen a violin.” He said.

“But if you saw it, contact the police.

“The violin has a heart -shaped hole in the parchment. This is a very different feature, it does not occur frequently, it is very rare.”

Met said that trying and finding the suspect was hard to try and objected to the witnesses.
