Big sound. Easy feel.

42 cm of depth, warmth, and character.

Inspired by the work of Claudio Manfio, this viola combines a generous body with effortless playability thanks to its refined proportions and slim neck design. I am really thankful to Manfio who shared his ideas and insights on his Viola Model which is rich, expressive, and comfortable from the very first note.

I have introduced my own artistic interpretation through selected adjustments to the varnish color and some other aspects 🙏

A rare voice from Naples 🇮🇹🎻

Today I’m presenting a beautiful violin by Vincenzo Sannino, crafted between 1920–1925 in Italy.

Sannino is considered one of the most fascinating makers of the Neapolitan school. His instruments combine remarkable craftsmanship, individuality, warmth of tone , qualities appreciated by both musicians and collectors. His work remains closely associated with the Neapolitan tradition and stands out for its distinctive character and rich varnish.

For collectors, instruments by Sannino are especially compelling not only for their artistic and tonal value, but also as a long-term investment. Fine Italian instruments from this period continue to attract growing international interest and are valued both as musical companions and collectible assets.

Please note: this violin is not stored at my workshop, so viewings are possible by appointment only.

A short moment from the with 🎻

During the exhibition, violas of many different sizes and models made by Munich violin makers were played in concert.

The wonderful sounds and craftsmanship of my colleagues were incredibly inspiring, and now I find myself wondering:

Which model should I build next?

Sometimes it is the space between the tones the tenderness, the fragility that brings everyone in the room into the same quiet focus.

Grateful to Emiko Yuasa for playing so many different violas in this concert, and for bringing such sensitivity to the program.

Build from 60 year old spruce and maple reclaimed at auction, this isn‘t the average Viola I made. This is a Model graciously shared by combined with my own touch of inspiration. It started as an experiment and turned out to be a very special project.
Crafted with patience and respect, a new ground formula and high pigmented varnish have been tested, that to me suit this otherwiese modest wood quite well. This is quite the opposite of Manfios highly transparent and eyecatching woodselection.
This Viola is a true sonic powerhouse. At 42cm with a wide lower bout, it‘s build for bisher players who crave presence.
I am deeply grateful to Luis Claudio Manfio for sharing his Model. As a maker himself, he emphsises that a Viola should be above all a tool for the musician: designed for Sound and playability rather than mere esthetics.
