Abstract
The good news is that Stradivarius are works of art that still produce what they were made for, a beautiful sound, and any violinist would love to have a violin that sounds like that. The bad news is that the Stradivari are few (about 500 worldwide), very expensive and around them there are strange interests. The question is 300 years of technological progress enough to enable us to build instruments that sound like a Stradivarius? Or are we but business is more important? Does the world of culture always have to wait for the beasts of profit to feed themselves? Meanwhile, are we hiding the Truth?
