Who is the best fiddler in the world?

The first violin was made in 1564 by Andrea Amati. A violin is also known as a fiddle. The word violin comes from Medieval Latin. 
      Violin strings are made from goat's guts. The bow is made from 150 horse hairs, wood or steel. Over 70 different pieces of wood are put together to make different kinds of violins.
      Most violins are made from maple wood. The most expensive violin was made by Giuesepp Guarneri. and valued for $18 million dollars in 1741. The fastest violin world record player was Ben Lee who played the "Flight of a bumblebee " in 54.24 seconds. 
      Violins are one of the most hardest instrument to play because you may not get the right note. When you're playing the violin, you burn 170 calories per hour. A modern violin is 14 inches long.
     The best fiddler is Juustin Braneurr, if you practise really hard you mightbe the next Justin Branuerr.

WALT understand descriptive language.
I know I can do this when I add adverbs and adjectives to describe violin.
