Bernardel Plumerel - ex David Walter

[Daniel Levine]

Hi there, Gautier.

I know the bass very well, as I grew up hearing it! David Walter was my stepfather, and after his death the bass was sold to Shinji Eshima of the SF Ballet (a former student, also, of David's).

I was just googling a bit about David and came across this thread, and I didn't realize the bass had a new home. If you don't mind, I'm kind of curious to track its story. Did you buy it from Shinji?

Thanks so much!


Best,
Daniel Levine
