HealthTech Reporter is proud to present our next CAT'S PAJAMAS AWARD WINNER (yes, it's a real award) to Mr. Barrie Kolstein. The Kolstein family is a highly recognized name in contemporary classical music for their craftsmanship in Violins, Cellos and Bases. Complimentary to his work for Samuel Kolstein & Son, Ltd. and Kolstein Music, Inc. Barrie also became a notable editor and contributor within the world of classical music, publishing numerous technical articles on restoration and appraisals in the International Society of Bassists with a feature article published in The Strad, February 1991. Barrie was also published regularly in the Double Bassist magazine and the Strad magazine, both of London, England, from 1996. These articles have ranged form interviews with makers and performers, technical articles on repair/making, and expert appraisal articles on historic master makers. Barrie also serves as editor of the “Luthier Corner” in the International Society of Bassists magazine restoration and repair forum.
Our editors have had the distinct pleasure of conducting an exclusive interview with Mr. Kolstein about his journey to battle Prostate cancer, his experience-based advocacy about "Getting Checked NOW!" and his earlier experiences with cancer- undergoing his late wife's battle.
