Book Overview
A Fiddler's Journey is an epistolary memoir, told through letters written by Judy Justice to her family. With a scholarship to study "avant-garde music," Cincinnatian Judy Justice sailed to Germany in May 1960 to break traditions and taste new personal and professional freedoms in a country that was experiencing a rebirth of freedom of its own.Even more significant; however, Judy's trip took place a mere fifteen years after the United States and Germany had been at war. World War II ended in the European theater in 1945, leaving much of Germany destroyed and its people trying to rebuild their infrastructure and regain pride.As you read A Fiddler's Journey, you will experience: - The adventure of a young woman finding her way around Europe during the breaking of centuries of patriarchal and male-dominant traditions- Her struggle to perfect her craft and find her niche as a violinist- What she played, what she heard played and what it was like to tour with a chamber orchestra- The realization of a dream achieved
