Televet Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Most of you will likely have had the email and listened to the sound-clip from Tarisio's highlight lot. What do we think it is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2fWwjVRr-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deans Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Almost sounds like a viola d'amore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle duke Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 My guess is the late 1700's to early, early 1900's - who the maker would be I'm scared to guess. My second guess would be an Amati of sorts, maybe a slightly smaller than standard 4/4 size? We'll find out eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin swan Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Well the performance is lovely, but I hope that's something unmodernized! And yet it's at 440 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Peterson Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Both the player and fiddle are astounding. No idea on the maker, but is the player possibly Tetzlaff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshGillan Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Sounds like an Nicolo Amati or one of strad's long patterns, something of a larger body. But the sound is a bit distorted on my end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Televet Posted September 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 1753 Guadagnini will be the highlight lot. Interesting story. First time on the open market since 1935 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
