MANFIO Posted May 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 And here this violin is played by the concertmaster of our State Orchestra, Emmanuele Baldini, (from Trieste, Italy) here at home, in a recital for my 50th birthday some months ago, with pianist Dana Radu. (Romenia), a Mozart Sonata: : And the two last movements of Cesar Frank's sonata: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalterOB Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 You always seem to have very similar (interesting) cuts of maple. Do you work from a stockpile or are you just able to source it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANFIO Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Well, it took me sometime to realize that I could not find the URL in my IPERNITY photo page because they want me to pay for that now.... Well, eventually I discovered that we can import photos from FACEBOOK to PHOTOBUCKET, quite easily, so here the photos of the 40.8 cm. (16 inche) viola "Barcarolle": http://s268.photobucket.com/user/manfio/library/Facebook/VIOLA%20Barcarolle%20408%20cm%2016%20inche?sort=3&page=1 And here a baroque viola "La Folia": http://s268.photobucket.com/user/manfio/library/Facebook/BAROQUE%20VIOLA%20LA%20FOLIA%20408%20cm%2016?sort=3&page=1 The player who comissioned the baroque viola came from South Africa to pick it and, eventually, got the modern viola "Barcarolle" too and now both instruments are in South Africa. I have instruments in 4 Continents now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
