Maker: Romeo Antoniazzi
Description: It is likely that Romeo Antoniazzi was taught by his older brother, Riccardo in the art of violin making. During his prolific career, Antoniazzi worked in a myriad of workshops and cities; some of which include his brother’s shop, that of Leandro Bisiach, and Monzino and Sons. Overall, Antoniazzi held a spontaneous yet meticulous approach towards the crafting of his instruments, placing him among the list of fine Italian luthiers.
This particular violin is in pristine condition and a splendid example of Romeo Antoniazzi’s finest workmanship. The sound is bright, clear and soloistic. The brightness has a rich, shimmering upper register with a nice degree of sweetness and warmth which avoids it being harsh. The lower strings are full-bodied and resonant providing a balanced and versatile sound. This kind of sound is often sought after for its ability to convey a wide range of emotions and dynamics with precision and quality.
