The modern violin
Although often disparaged by musicians who prefer to turn to
antique instrumentsHowever, modern violins are the alternative of choice to satisfy all the needs of today's top-level violinists.
The advantages of modern violins
These are exciting times: a new golden age of violin making. As a result, we have access to many excellent violins, and in large quantities. Of course, the profusion will mean that we'll have to sort things out, but I'm here to clear things up.
However, after selection, we are left with instruments with character, great playing quality and very often an affordable price compared to vintage violins.
A few remarks on modern violins
The main drawback of today's violins is their waiting time. Indeed, if you wish to acquire an instrument made especially for you by a luthier currently in vogue, you may have to wait several years.
However, you won't have to endure a waiting period for violins from
The Collection because they'll all be available immediately.
Another point that many musicians consider problematic is the maturation time of an instrument. It's a well-known fact that a violin will take years to open up and reach its highest level of acoustic sensitivity.
In fact, this is not only the case for modern instruments, as antiques can also find themselves in the same situation if they have not been played for years.
