- Lois Rindlisbacher-Albrecht: My father, Otto Rindlisbacher, really enjoyed performing. He came to Rice Lake in 1907, and that's where he lived the rest of his life. He played the regular violin and he played the Hardanger violin, chromatic and piano accordion. He also made a cigar box fiddle. He was self-taught; he had never gone to college. My father made the remark to me, different times, that music was a food for the soul. The violin, to my father, would be like a very special buddy. Someone that you could really get a lot of enjoyment from at all time.
