Yep, and haven't played in a while.  I need to get my violin repaired, 
actually - had some maintenance done several years ago and some varnish 
got stuck to the top of the sound post - the repair's going to cost about 
$400 to complete (we have a neighbor who's a violin maker who works on 
instruments for a few members of the Utah Symphony).

I played in the Greater Twin Cities' Youth Symphonies in Minneapolis as a 
kid - and toured the USSR in 1988 with the orchestra.

Fortunately, I have good recordings of all three pieces. :)
