Malaysia's first professional violin maker carves out a rare craft
Hunched over his workbench, Tan Chin Seng shaves the wooden top plate of a violin, removing thin layers with slow, deliberate strokes. The work is meditative, out of the public eye. For Tan, transforming raw wood into a violin is a labour of artistry and love. The 45-year-old is Malaysia's first professional violin luthier, or maker of string instruments like violins, cellos and guitars. Over the past decade, he has earned international accolades. Now he mentors a new generation of makers in a field still little-known in South-East Asia. Traditionally, violin luthiers are associated with Europe, where masters like Antonio Stradivari and Giuseppe Guarneri shaped the modern violin. The craft has spread globally, with thriving communities now in China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. Tan's path to violin-making was unconventional. A computer science graduate who doesn't play the violin, he was helping in his family's food business and co-owned a music school. In 2010, a trip to China to restore an ageing violin sparked a deeper fascination with the instrument's construction. Curiosity led him to apprentice with Chinese luthier Han Zhao Sheng, and he built his first violin. "After completing the first violin, I knew this craft was for me,' Tan said. "There's woodworking, carpentry, artistic design. There's chemistry, acoustics, physics - everything about violin-making, I like it. Turning wood into music is just amazing.' What followed was, in Tan's words, a "crazy' devotion. He flew back and forth to Beijing for more training, then traveled to Italy to study under other luthiers. In the early days, he would spend up to 16 hours a day hunched over wood, perfecting every curve and contour. In 2015, he committed to violin-making full time. The process is painstaking, often taking hundreds of hours to create a single violin and requiring intense focus. His studio, Deciso, located in a suburb near Kuala Lumpur, is cluttered with chunks of aged wood, chisels and jars of hand-mixed varnishes. Tan crafts up to 10 instruments a year, using spruce for the top plate - the wood is prized for its resonance - and maple for the back, sides and neck. Sourced from Europe and at an annual wood fair in Shanghai, they are aged for years to ensure tonal quality and prevent warping and cracking. Each violin begins with carving and smoothing the wooden boards to precise dimensions. Tan said the top and back plates are shaped to exact thicknesses that affect resonance. The ribs are bent and assembled, and the scroll is hand-carved at the neck. Varnish - often a luthier's secret blend - is applied in thin layers for protection and tonal influence. The last steps include cutting the bridge and stringing the instrument. Tan's early years were challenging. Some Malaysian clients compared his handmade work to mass-produced instruments. But business grew after he won international awards in Italy and beyond. Today, he builds violins - and occasionally violas and cellos - mainly on commission. Half of his clients come from abroad including France, Germany and Hong Kong. Each violin sells for 12,000 euros (approximately RM59,232). Tan's journey has inspired others. While most of his students are musicians and young people, few pursue it as a trade due to the demands of the craft. Still, some have followed in his footsteps including Chan Song Jie, Malaysia's first female violin luthier. Today, there are two other full-time violin luthiers in the country, both trained by him. Tan notes that the domestic market is still too small to support many more. "I would say passion is not enough,' Tan said. "We're all crazy. Everyone in this workshop - you see - they're all crazy. We just love the work too much.' - AP

Deep Purple's Malaysia date sole SEA stop on tour
HAVING written one of the most iconic guitar riffs ever, Deep Purple are assured of its place in rock history. But the pioneering hard rock outfit is not about to rest on its laurels or legacy afforded by classic tunes such as Smoke on the Water with the annoucement of its latest tour. Malaysian fans are in luck as the band will be performing at Mega Star Arena on Nov 23, which is the band's only stop in Southeast Asia. Formed in London in 1968, Deep Purple released countless classic albums including Fireball, In Rock and Perfect Strangers, all of which have been cited as major influences by major artistes such as Metallica and even, Oasis! But it is the 1972 release which cemented the band's stature as genuine heavy hitters when Smoke on the Water became a monster hit worldwide – lest it be forgotten, this was before the convenience of streaming and the internet. Smoke on the Water is a tale of the band's misadventures when it decamped to a Swiss resort to lay down tracks for a new long player, only for fire to jettison those well-laid plans. What happened next was recounted in that famous song and the resulting album - Machine Head - that cemented its reputation as one of the planet's hardest rocking bands. Fast forward a few decades and the band is still rocking and touring hard despite numerous line-up changes that included the loss of founding member John Lord in 2012. But fret not as Deep Purle's trademark hard rock sound will still be delivered with all the groove and enthusiasm of men half their age! Tickets for Deep Purple Live In Malaysia will go live on July 30 at noon. The ticket prices ranges from RM359 to RM2,099, with the exclusive benefits of lanyards and official posters for Royal Twin Seat ticket holders.
