    In my opinion it is nice to talk a bit about the child violin, Mozart had. But WHERE IS HIS MEIN INSTRUMENT??? In my opinion the Della Costa is a great instrument. But his Klotz violin where he compost and premiered all 5 of his VC and the Sinfonie Concentarta K. 364.

    This is absolutely one of my favourite KZread channels: beautiful violins, beautiful playing; what more could one want? Well, perhaps a bag of money, a ticket to Scotland, and a Pietro Guarneri of Venice. (And a Postiglione.)

    Such a powerful violin! I’d love to own a Guarneri copy. I’ve always wanted one. I don’t like the shrill high notes of most violins, but this one’s high notes are very palatable to my ear. This thing sounds like the cannon, that Paganini played.

    I've just come across this little video - what a marvellous instrument, and well demonstrated by the player, though, mind you, I'm sure it's quite a privilege to play on a violin like that! 🎻

    Gareth restored a cello for me in January 2021, and did such a wonderful job. It wasnt an expensive instrument, but the difference in tone before and after he'd had it was extraordinary. Cannot recommend him highly enough.

    Is this method of using luminosity for determining the thickness uniquely used by Gareth or other makers as well? thanks very much for sharing this. greetings from down under :)

  • @shenliu4955
    @shenliu49552 жыл бұрын

    I guess this method is uniquely applied by Gareth because it can't handle all situations in violin making. The transparency of the same board may be different, especially those carved along the chord of the timber. It's inevitable to use a vernier calliper to determine the thickness of the wood.

    I agree, but u got to give credit where its due, could be called thinking outside the box perhaps? Density of wood and thickness or thinning of plates is still a mystery I think, and I reckon that is the secret of the old masters..not varnish or ground coat or so..my 2 cents worth 😀

    Fair to say that Gareth is brilliant at thinking outside the box! It's always so interesting to learn about different approaches :)
