Advancing players working on technique and giving performances in larger
settings must concentrate on developing agility, accuracy, and breadth of
expression. Their instruments require a full and rich tone, must be well
balanced, and need to project nicely in a group setting. At the same time,
some forgiveness must temper the performance or nerves and less than
perfect skills can lead to problems.
These violins are generally made in small workshops overseen by masters.
The woods are better and the attention to fine details of graduation and
arching is much more pronounced. These instruments tend to follow classical
models closely. Each violin receives more individual attention to get greater
performance. Final set-up is more advanced and typically involves a
complete workup by our luthier, Steve Perry. The tone is more complex, the
response more rapid, and the individual character of each violin shows
through.
These instruments are generally hand made in mid-size to large workshops
by craft specialists. They begin to exhibit a greater degree of individual
difference and can be more effectively adjusted to a player’s preferences.
