What It Is that Makes Expensive Cremona Violins Masterpieces of Incomparable Quality?

Violins that are handmade by renowned violin makers from Cremona are often more expensive. These fine master violins are characterized by first-class materials, years of experience and exceptional craftsmanship. Antique Cremonese violins from the 18th or 19th century are often more expensive due to their rarity, their unique sound and playing characteristics. Original instruments by Guarneri del Gesù or Stradivari from the 17th and 18th centuries even sell for several million euros. In many cases, Stradivari violins are only loaned to renowned musicians. But it doesn’t always have to be a historic Cremona violino. Even contemporary violins from an excellent violin making atelier often offer an elegant beauty in aesthetics and sound and unparalleled precision craftsmanship that justify a high price.

An expensive Cremonese violin offers incomparable sound characteristics that often only fully unfold at the highest level. This makes them a particularly interesting choice for professional musicians who are looking for a special companion for solo recitals and orchestral performances. They enable deeper artistic expression, inspire players and often have a high resale value, making them a long-term investment.

However, it does not always have to be a very expensive violin model from Cremona. The choice depends on the musician's individual needs, experience and budget. There are also high-quality, mid-priced violins from Cremona that can be an excellent choice for aspiring musicians or those with a limited budget.

A genuine Italian violin is also a good choice for young, ambitious violin students. There are special violins in the Premier Novice Violin Outfit in suitable sizes for children from the age of 3. A Cremona Student Violin Outfit is a perfect companion for every student on their way to becoming a violin virtuoso. All instruments are made by master craftsmen and guarantee easy playability and a great tone.
