Whichever of his passions Yehudi Menuhin pursued - performing
or conducting - every note of his music was a gift to mankind.
Through his muis he succeeded in inspiring people all over
the world - with the spirit of joy, hope and international
understanding. This great gift was just one of the reasons
for the recognition and honor that he received worldwide.
The Donation Pen Yehudi Menuhinm was created
as a token of respect for his life's work. This pen, with
it's loving details, is as unforgettable as it is unique.
As a tribute to the virtuosity of the violinist, the gold-plated
clip symbolises the neck of a violin with it's scroll. The
delicately engraved ring around the cap of the pen carries
his signature. A delicate engraving of a dove decorates
the rhodium-plated 18-carat gold nib. The donation Pen Yehudi
Menuhin is thus a symbol of deep respect for Menuhin's great
ideas and visions, and a lasting memorial to one of the
greatest musicians and people of our time. His musical legacy
can be relived through the compact disc in the exclusive
presentation box.
When Albert
Einstein heard the thirteen-year-old child prodigy Yehudi
Menuhin play, he responded with his famous memento mori:
in the course of his incomparable career, Lord Menuhin -
the great violinist, conductor and humanist - devoted himself
primarily to encouraging young musicians.
In honour of Lord Yehudi Menuhin, Montblanc is presenting
the new Donation Pen, that is decorated with a stylised
violin neck and Lord Menuhin's signature. Montblanc is donating
part of the proceeds of every single writing instrument
to the Philharmonia of the Nations.
