Fondazione Antonio Stradivari Ente Triennale Strumenti ad Arco - Liuteria a Cremona
Cremona 1730 - 1750
An extraordinary season of studies dedicated to instruments of the Cremonese
school between 1730 and the end of the 1800s
On the occasion of the Triennial programme
“Stradivarius ... and beyond” 2008-2010,
dedicated to the instruments of the Cremonese
school between 1730 and the end of the 1800s,
the Stradivarius Foundation is inaugurating
an important season of studies.
It has therefore decided to involve major
international experts, correlating their
different skills, and to use new research
strategies, never before applied to violin
making, in order to acquire data on historical
masterpieces. The aim is to develop the most
complete corpus of technical-scientific information
on the history of the construction technologies
of Cremonese violins.
