Violinmaker on a day

   -          Did you know that a violin is made up of fifty parts, all of which must                          "work together"?

   -          Would you like to try breathing life into a violin?  

   -          Do you want to explore the secrets of crafting master violins?

Become a violin maker for a day and learn a great deal about the history, the principles of violin construction, and the different types and models of violins. We will explain why some violins sound better than others. You will also have the opportunity to test your skills with violin-making tools and try various operations involved in crafting master violins. If you are an active violinist, feel free to bring your violin (viola, cello, etc.), and together we can fine-tune the instrument for a better tone or address any repairs needed.
