| The Murder of LeClairIn 1758, after the break-up of his second marriage, Leclair purchased a small house in a dangerous Parisian neighborhood, where he was found stabbed to death in 1764. Although the murder remains a mystery, there is a possibility that his ex-wife may have been behind it – her motive being financial gain – although the strongest suspicion rests on his nephew, Guillaume-François Vial. Whether at the hands of a relative who had not forgiven him for abandoning the family, or as the work of another musician envious of his talent, on or about October 23, 1764, Jean-Marie Leclair was killed by a stab in the back. He was so isolated from the world that he was not found until two months later, lying on the floor in his room and – as those present noticed immediately with wonder and pity – still clutching to his chest what he had held most dear: his red Stradivarius. His right hand stiffened against the violin, Leclair had left on its surface an indelible dark stain that would always mark this prized 1721 Stradivarius.
