    And of course it helps to be naked as per your pic.

    I guess she’s a model, not a musician. Playing left-handed – probably not.

    A few years back the Dallas Symphony went on tour to Mexico City. The has wooden crates built for their 12 string basses. They arrived in MX City and the symphony staff went to cargo terminal to pick up the instrument. The cargo handlers delivered 13 wooden crates to the symphony. After some investigated they found #13 was the body being shipped home for burial.

    Please do NOT use Simple Flying as an article to credit. They are journalistic hacks who can’t even proofread their work. They literally state in that article that cellists don’t typically take their instruments on board!!
