Paneveggio, Northern Italy: Disapperaring Violins and a Silent City

In January 2019, the city of Cremona in Italy went silent for 5 weeks, for a rather unique reason. But for that, we need to go back over 300 years, to follow the work of a man who created some of the most prized violins in human history - The Stradivarius, the most expensive one being sold for 20 Million dollars. In the third episode of Our Changing World: Stories of Climate Change, Utsav takes you to the forests of Peneveggio in Northern Italy, and how climate change is impacting classical music, and why did the town of Cremona go silent. Join him as he shows us an unlikely and unimagined side of climate change.
