Who is supposed to care?! During the mini ice age, 1350-1750 the trees grew at a slower rate. The wood from those trees had rings which were closer together thus making for many of the best sounding violens ever made. This, we need a new ice age or maybe plant trees at higher latitudes for slower growth. The fiddles of the future need the cold.! Seriously series I say.

All those trees growing in Siberian forest, would they be useful for making better violins? Or only special kind of trees are suitable?
