Stephen Churchill Posted November 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Thanks Omobono, I'll add that one shortly. BassClef, If you don't mind I'll put your pictures on my Met page, with attribution of course. Thanks! Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Churchill Posted November 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 thanks for the latest additions. Omobono: I've added Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Zagreb Conservatorio di Musica San Pietro a Majella, Naples Escola de Música do Conservatório Nacional, Lisbon The The Palace of The Legion of Honor, still lists the Heifetz del Gesu as 'not displayed', but I included the instrument link you provided in the description. The MET entry is now updated with BassClef's pictures here: http://stephenchurchill.ca/resources/1142-2/the-metropolitan-museum-of-art/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwight Brown Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan has some nice violins. I saw them years ago and the museum has lots of other things. I would give it one star. http://www.thehenryford.org/exhibits/pic/2013/13_august.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Ford's estate has quite a selection of impressive instruments, unfortunately it appears most are not on display. One is actually on-loan to Cremona!

Omobono Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Stephen, There doesn't appear to be a South American contribution on your list as yet. What about this one? http://www.thestrad.com/cpt-latests/guarneri-del-gesu-violin-takes-centre-stage-in-new-buenos-aires-instrument-gallery/ They claim instruments by Guarneri, Rugeri, Guadagnini, Santo Serafin, Gobetti and Cappa, as well as more contemporary makers. http://www.welcomeargentina.com/ciudadbuenosaires/hispanoamericano-museum.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no doubt you're in luck if you live in Europe but what about the rest of us I'll add this entry shortly. Thanks Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
