You are not implying that he [Kolisch] used a normal strung instrument? That I

What can I say? I saw him do it. And from what I was told about the "why" of
it all, I'm not even sure he was left-handed.
Sorry, Andrew, I think there may be a misunderstanding. Are you saying
that he used a violin with the g string in the normal place, or a violin
where the strings were reversed? Surely he had the strings reversed.
Actually, I am certain that was the case.
The why was an injury in his teens. He was not left handed, but in
effect he had the same advantages or disadvantages as a left handed
player playing the normal way.
