Last week we had 2-days workshop with Maestro Hrachya Galstyan on peg construction

It was fascinating to see the artisanal making of these set up accessories that most luthiers buy already made.

Thank you, Maestro!

Violin Making workshop with Master Liu Zhao Yang. What part of the violin are they studying and creating? The bassbar. The bassbar is a spruce wood bar, positioned longitudinally and glued to the inside of the board, passing under the bridge. Its function is intended to be of support and is crucial for the final rendering of the violin ????. With the passage of time its structure tends to lose nerve, causing the violin top to lower and causing the lower notes of the instrument to lose strength. You must be very careful and carefully consider when to replace it.

To make the violin scroll we need an average of 18 hours of work and great hand skill, changing the size of the gouge as the hedgehog begins to take shape, maintaining a gradual increase in thickness, and then finishing the work with the knife, scrapers and finally with sandpaper, defining in this way the model. It is often thought that the chamfer that surrounds the violin scroll is superfluous, but instead it represents the identifying characteristic of each instrument, determining the style of the violin maker.

Did you know about this Albert Einstein’s passion? Music was part of his life from the age of 6, when he started playing the violin, to continue to deepen his study also at the piano. His experience teaches us that music is not just a soundtrack of our experiences, but it is a unique discipline, which serves to stimulate creativity and genius. As with all great artists, Einstein argued that, in addition to the knowledge of logic and mathematics, intuition and inspiration are the basis of knowledge. And where to find them if not in the arts ? Is there really a difference between art and science? Einstein argued that anything that can be experimented and coded according to logic is science, but anything that is expressed without consciousness is art. Learning is an art.

Two objects in comparison very different from each other, for material, use, age of construction, which however share the undisputed characteristic of precision. Precision that was born for similar needs: 

in the Messiah violin, by Maestro Antonio Stradivari, we can perceive the peculiarity in the details of the hedgehog, in their perfect symmetry, created as a work of art, to give harmony to the shapes and uniqueness to the instrument. 

In the same way, the Franck Muller Tourbillon Skeleton watch presents the characteristic of precision in its construction, where manual work is combined with that of mechanics, aimed at marking the time that passes with exactness and extreme rigor. 

Precision for these objects thus becomes a means to satisfy two fundamental requirements, artistic beauty and the value of functionality.
