Violin maker (luthier) in Cremona, Italy where I make violin


About

Violin maker (luthier) in Cremona, Italy where I make violins, violas, cellos and viola da gamba.

I take pride in understanding all the technical processes which go into creating a great instrument making a very few a year to ensure the highest quality possible. I know the whereabouts of most of my instruments and get to see them from time to time as the musicians who commission them often become friends.

I'm a member of the Michelangelo Foundation and the BVMA.

I handpick every single piece of wood for his instruments to ensure that each piece is of the highest quality and to make certain that every one of my instruments will have a long lasting life.

I work alone from scratch on each instrument and, as I have a background in Engineering, I also have a keen interest in the physics of the instrument and the importance this has on the acoustics.

My workshop is in the city centre of Cremona, just a stone’s throw from the home of Stradivari.
