"My cello has been transported on mules, camels, trucks, rowboats,
droshkie, bicycles, gondolas, jeeps, a submarine off Italy, subways,
trams, sleds, junks, and on a stretcher in Amalfi.  But by far the most
racking experience of all is when, in full dress, I must transport the
cello in my own hands across the stage each time I have to play."
-Gregor ("Grisha") Piatigorsky
