This is Wang Zhiguo's Violin workshop, which has a history of 25 years and owned by our luthier, Master Wang. A true artisan luthier, He traveled to Italy for further Violin-Making study and returned 3 years later. He does not make many instruments within a year, though every piece hefinishes is absolutely classic. As the best luthier, Master Wang always takes such factors as the individual character and resonance of each of different wood, making adjustments in the course of construction to ensure a beautiful sound rather than simply adhering to a standard of length, arch, width, and what not. This violin was hand made by Master Wang himself from the start to the finish, after Stradivari 1716 Messiah Violin; it not only looks beautiful, but also gives me an impressive sound, pleasantly powerful, penetrating without any harsh, nicely rich, deep, full, pure,well-balanced. |
