Stradivarius to Poland after World War II

By purchasing Antonio Stradivari’s violin from 1685 and handing the instrument over for use to violinist Janusz Wawrowski, Roman Ziemian not only renewed the age-old Polish violin tradition (in 1715 King August II ordered a dozen or so instruments from the famous master of violin making, but none of them survived), but it also enabled the Polish violinist to appear on the great world stage of classical music. The last copies of the Polish Stradivarius were lost during World War II, and the country, dominated by communism for the next 50 years, did not manage to raise funds for the renewal of the stock of top-class instruments.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Question

Roman Ziemian of Octane 126, one of the Ferrari Challenge Europe rookies, is this week’s guest of “Fast Lane”. The Polish driver talks about himself and his passions, which along with Ferrari and motorsport, include classical music.

I competed for a long time with other cars in semi-professional categories.

I would have loved to race in Abu Dhabi. I spend periods of the year in Dubai, so for me, it would have been like racing at home. As for the circuit I enjoyed the most, I would say Mugello for now. I suffered a bit of damage on the Italian track, but I enjoyed it.

I love classical music. I studied at the conservatory, and I have many friends who are now musicians or composers. I love the violin, for example. But I admit that I also listen to a lot of rock and pop.
