Anna Shuttleworth wrote
in ESTA ‘news & views’, summer 2002
in a review about the Cello Course at Eton College
24-31 March 02:
“Here I would like to mention that at
least six wonderfully sounding cellos made by Kai
were brought on this course, including a copy of
my Tononi cello, which I prefer to the original.”
