Caroline Chéhadé is awarded a
1717 Windsor-Weinstein Stradivari

Caroline Chéhadé, a graduate of the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal and a master’s student at the Manhattan School of Music, is one of the Montrealers who will enjoy the use of a fine instrument from the Musical Instrument Bank administered by the Canada Council.

The council announced Thursday that Chéhadé, who appeared with the Orchestre Métropolitain last May, will use the 1717 Windsor-Weinstein Stradivarius violin, valued at $4.3 million.
