A violin that plays itself

The Virtuoso (not to be confused with our contributor) Violin is a self-playing musical instrument. It is a real violin, and plays the same way that a violinist would play it; no synthesizers are involved. It is programmed through MIDI, much like any synthesizer is. As you can hear, the instrument does a good job, but at $17,500 you might as well buy your own violin and professional lessons.
