💡 DID YOU KNOW? On July 6, 1925, Charlie Chaplin became the first actor to grace the cover of TIME Magazine. More than an actor, Chaplin also wrote, directed, produced, edited, starred in, and composed the music for most of his films. He was also an accomplished amateur violinist who played left-handed! His violin was specially strung, with the bass-bar and sound post reversed. While he had early ambitions to become a concert violinist, he ultimately gave up that dream to pursue a film career, though his love for music and violin playing remained throughout his life. #ASOat80 #MusicTrivia #CharlieChaplin #YourAnchorageSymphony (fb)
