My Art.
Your Sound.
“Rediscover the works of the great Masters by adding brand new words each time.
Our own contemporaneity.
This is why I always prefer reinterpretation to copy.
This is why I love to create my instruments with varnish and all construction details intact, allowing time to add its signs in an authentic way.”

My Story.
I was born in Milan in 1981.
Always been fascinated by music, I soon became immersed in his magic by studying piano. Thanks to a precious suggestion, I visited the “School of Violin Making of Milan” and its enchanting timeless atmosphere fascinated me immediately.
Here, where art, craft and music blend in harmony, my adventure in the world of violin making started.
Violin making, a continuous evolving field, where theory and practice interact each other constantly in various disciplines, such as organology, physical acoustic and chemistry of varnish, becomes for me an ideal choice after graduating from the Scientific Highschool.
In 2004 I get my degree from the “School of Violin Making of Milan”, where I am a student of M° Paola Vecchio, a student herself of M° Luca Primon, and I also obtain a specialization in restoration techniques of string instruments.
The following year I move to Cremona where I work as assistant in various workshops, deepening my knowledge of the construction method, repairs and sound adjustment.
I graduate in Cremona in 2008 in “Baroque Violin Making”, studying the construction methods and the history of the ancient instruments and building some baroque violins, a viola da gamba and their bows.
The studies on baroque instruments are extremely important to fully understand the evolution of the violin from its origins to modern times and to better develop my personal style.
I make instruments inspired on the old Cremonese tradition, and I do care the acoustic qualities, the style and the craft of my instruments in every details, searching a personal powerful sound, with a warm and rich tone.
I use oil varnish based on ancient recipes to create depth and warm tone.
I choose only finest and well seasoned tone-woods, Val di Fiemme’s spruce and Balcan’s maple, characterized by excellent acoustic quality.
Since 2017 I am a member of Cultural district of Violin in Cremona, a network that keeps alive the search for high level violinmaking, defending its traditional know-how. Thanks to District I can partecipate continuously in painting workshops, acoustic physics and many others. In addiction I have the opportunity to have in my hands and listen to violins from the Museo del Violino collection including the masterpiece of Amati, Stradivari and Guarneri.
I work in Cremona in my workshop in via Beltrami 28, in an ancient Renaissance palace near to the Cathedral and the Violin Museum, sources of artistic inspiration, conscious of working in the most charming city in the world to create my violins.

Testimonials.
First, the craft and workmanship on your violin is beautiful, extraordinary really. The sound is very similar to Strads I know and I think that it has a complexity of sound and great reserve of power. The true test is playing music in a real situation. I used it with great pleasure in two rehearsals and a concert. It gave me everything I wanted artistically, and more possibilities than I had expected. I think this is a truly great violin and I congratulate with you on a rare and great achievement, I look forward to seeing more of your great work,
