Fine Contemporary Violins, Violas and Cellos

Maior autem animae pars extra corpus est
A greater part of the soul is outside the body.
— Sendivogius

My admiration for the beauty of the traditional violin form carries over to my work making instruments in the spirit of the old Italian masters. I use models from Stradivari, Guarneri del Gesú and others. I use the finest materials; Choice aged tonewoods, I make my own varnish and purfling and use the best available fittings. The instruments can be made new or antiqued. Please inquire about commissions.

My instruments are played by students in the Mannes, Juilliard and Hart schools of music.
