Howery Violins

Violin Nicolo: trimming the purfling grove corners. I work with enlarged photos of Stradivarius’ Messiah which you can see in the background. The Messiah is the most pristine example of Antonio’s work. Passed pretty much un-played from Antonio’s Son Paolo, to Count Cozio Di Salabue to Luigi Tarisio, to Jean Baptiste Vuillaume, to W. E. Hill, and now on display at the Ashmolian Museum in Oxford. I work slow and patiently ever striving to come closer to the masters craftsmanship. Every violin I make a bit finer in craftsmanship and better in tone and playability. Antonio made the Messiah in 1716 at the age of 72. He started his apprenticeship in his teen years, so doing the math, I’ll won’t live long enough to gain the experience he acquired, however I due have a clear goal and example through his work
