March and April were the peak months for New York, with every day somehow, impossibly, worse than the day before. The chaos and desperation of a COVID-19 surge are sadly familiar to medical workers throughout the world. Within the week, New York City was officially in lockdown, with business activity limited only to essential workers, a category that evidently did not include luthiers. The next day, however, the mayor announced that schools would be closing. He gave me a loaner cello and told me to come back in a week. His final diagnosis included a warped bridge, two loose pegs, and a G string on its last legs, in addition to the split seams. Unlike some of us in medicine, he did not skimp on the orderly progression of inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation. The on-duty luthier took a careful history and then hauled my cello onto the examination table. I hustled downtown for an emergency consultation at a Tribeca tenement on a cobblestoned street, little changed from when my grandfather stepped off the boat from Latvia a century earlier, just blocks away. If I didn't get them sutured, stat, the entire instrument could eviscerate. Thanks to the sweltering heat in New York City apartments, two seams on my cello had splayed open. COVID-19 cases had started to trickle into our hospital, but I had a different sort of acute case on my hands.
