The completion of a mile run (1609 m) in four minutes or less is an extraordinary achievement known as the four-minute mile. In 1954, at the age of 25, Roger Bannister made history by accomplishing this feat in a remarkable time of 3:59.4. Despite being warned that it was impossible and even dangerous, he proved the skeptics wrong. Today, it is widely recognized that running a four-minute mile is within the realm of possibility, with many athletes striving to attain this impressive milestone.
Why do I share this story? It serves as a powerful reminder that what was once deemed impossible can be conquered. When we first introduced the violoncello da spalla, we encountered similar skepticism from so-called experts. They dismissed it as dangerous and impossible. Yet, today, even children can learn to play it within 30 days, not to mention passionate professional musicians who embrace the richness of music culture.
Are you one of those individuals eager to explore new musical horizons? Then I invite you to take up the challenge. Just play it. Unleash your potential, embrace the extraordinary, and embark on a journey of musical discovery with the violoncello da spalla. Together, let’s defy the odds and create beautiful music that transcends boundaries.
Dare to be exceptional. Dare to play the violoncello da spalla. Last but not least: we are always looking for exceptional musicians who want to at least share.
