The story explores the power of love to transcend both life and death. Der Geigenbogen des Neck (The Neck's Violin Bow), a whimsical and enchanting tale, follows the journey of a young musician named Fridolin. After receiving a magical violin bow from a mischievous water spirit, Fridolin embarks on a musical odyssey that leads him through enchanted forests and royal courts.
