Stradivari - Myth and the Finacial Crisis

The announced exhibition "Stradivarius Myth & Music" planned to take place in March 2010 in Germany has been postponed. The organizers explain on the "Wallraff-Richartz-Museum-website":

Dear lovers of Stradivarius,... ...The continuing financial crisis forces us to postpone this unique project. This decision has only been taken after long and careful consideration. Everyone involved feels very sad about this. But we have seen that the subject of Stradivarius arouses interest worldwide, and we are hoping for better times, so that we can implement the project at a later date, maybe as early as 2011.
When I read those well-considered words today, a fascinating scene awoke in my mind:
Hundreds of Stradivari-fans all over the world sitting in their homes; shattered by this bad news that the announced Stradivari- exhibition is canceled;  weeping; and they are angry about this thing called financial crisis, that is even powerful enough to break the Myth of Stradivari! A really horrible scene!  - Now, the great Myth of Stradivari found an enemy that is strong enough to fight against it at last? Will the Myth of Stradivarius be defeated?

So, when you are a "lover of Stradivarius", and you longed to visit this "unique" event don't be "sad". There is hope: Perhaps it is possible to visit the exhibition in 2011. And for all those who already bought their tickets: Your tickets will be refunded!
