I watched this with my £700 violin sitting next to me and it was awkward... probably like watching the Miss World competition with an ugly girlfriend. Oh well, at least she's mine. 😀
That was fun! You have a great ear, and are a fantastic builder. If you need someone to break in one of your new violins, to open it up a bit ... I'd be willing ... heh heh. Thanks for the video!
It would be great to hear a comparison of violin makers of the Bisiach school & the Vuillaume school. It would also be fun to compare the sound of different Mirecourt makers - Markneukirchen, too.
The hidden advertisements are quite nicely done: the promotion for the academy hidden as a phone call is a nice touch and of course the subtle hint that the sound of the Guarneri reminds Edgar of the violin he is building right now 😀😅😂
This was very helpful, you nailed them. More of these please! Good to hear your explanations of why, like "this one fills the room where the other is just over there." Help us train our ear! Wish they would show closeups of the violins so you could explain why it looks like a old master italian violin. Would be interesting to see and hear a comparison of current cremona violins with other Italian city violins? Do they have an italian competition video you can give your take on? I know they do this with classical guitars at the expo. Thanks!
Edgar, it would be fun to play your master instruments against the Italian masters, and some French masters, and some German masters and some English masters.
