Considered to be one of the eminent violin makers of his generation, Ferdinando Garimberti continued the violin making tradition of Riccardo Antoniazzi and Leandro Bisiach. The clear lines and careful workmanship of this instrument, based on a Stradivari model, are typical of Garimberti’s work.

This viola has an open sound with a range of colourful overtones and a distinctive timbre.
