Happy Birthday, Shlomo Mintz! Another year, another symphony of achievements—your violin bow has seen more applause than most rock stars' guitars. From conducting orchestras to mentoring aspiring virtuosos, your calendar is busier than Paganini's fingers on a good day.Your tenure as Artistic Director at the Sion-Valais International Music Festival remains legendary; rumor has it even Beethoven would have bought tickets. May your birthday be filled with laughter louder than a standing ovation and cake sweeter than your flawless vibrato. Here's to many more years of inspiring performances and unforgettable musical adventures—keep fiddling fabulously!
