Professor of the Practice Daniel Chong was recently featured in an article by *The Boston Globe*.

The article, "After playing at the opening of Symphony Hall 125 years ago, $11 million Stradivarius violin is at the MFA" discusses the acquisition of violinist Franz Kneisel's instrument, which will be on view in the MFA starting October 20, and will be featured in a public performance by Parker Quartet this spring. Chong, who performed a handful of concerts using the violin this past summer, was interviewed for the article.
