In 2011, I was asked by the brilliant baroque violinist Sigurd Imsen<\/a> to build a baroque violin for him. The baroque violin differs from a modern violin in many ways. Important details such as neck, fingerboard, bass bar, strings, bridge and setup make this something really unique.<\/p>\n

The goal was to make a violin that was as close as possible to Tartini’s own violin. I got access to pictures and measurements of the original violin, and together with Sigurd we found out what would suit his sound ideal.<\/p>\n

This has been an incredibly exciting journey for both of us. You can hear the violin on his two recordings: Tartini Secondo Natura and The Trondheim Concertos.<\/p>\n<\/div>
