General Kyd Stradivarius

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The General Kyd; ex-Stern Stradivarius is an antique cello crafted in 1684 by Italian luthier Antonio Stradivari of Cremona. This cello, currently owned by the Los Angeles Philharmonic and played by Peter Stumpf, was stolen from Stumpf's porch in 2004. The General Kyd was later recovered after narrowly escaping being turned into a fancy CD rack.[1]

Noted owners of the General Kyd-Stern are its namesakes, General Kyd and Leo Stern, Lord Amherst of Hackney, W.E. Hill & Sons, Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume. At the time of Sterns death in 1904, the General Kyd was valued at US$6,000; its current value is US$3.5 million.[2][3]
