Justin Toner & Orchard Violins

Thanks a million to Justin Toner of Orchard Violins who came all the way to the Academy with a great selection of fiddles this evening !

4 of our students walked away with beautiful instruments and they were delighted with the quality, sound and price !

Some of the happiest faces we've seen in a long time !
