Jacqueline du Pré 1673?

after a precursory search, beyond the referenced citation—which is from a fansite—i have been unable to otherwise find anywhere that the cello has been christened with a new name. --emerson7 | Talk 20:21, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Renaissance le Corbeau 13:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC) I have contacted LYNN HARRELL at the "SHEPHERD SCHOOL OF MUSIC" and asked if he can tell me if this is fact or fiction. Will update as soon as I get feedback.[reply]

Renaissance le Corbeau 00:08, 3 August 2007 (UTC) Email received from Britta Schmidt, Personal Assistant to Lynn Harrell. In which she writes:Yes, I bought the cello from DuPre in 1984 years before she died. I legally took the steps to have it named "the Jacqueline DuPre Stradivari" because she played it before she had the "Davidoff Stradivari 1712"[reply]

Hello: I was wondering if Mr. Harrell was successful in his legal efforts to have the 1673 Cello renamed in Jacqueline du Pre's name. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Brian Moran 2600:1700:66C0:2F50:A830:C57D:529A:F0FF (talk) 14:39, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
