That was beautiful. This is a man who chose a profession to bring more beauty into the world (meanwhile I've got about eight unfinished projects just laying around).
Yes, I am sure of what he said. The gratification of hearing it played and it manages a played well status, is what makes every hand cramp, shaving scrape, every ill-placed drip of varnish, or finger burn, worth every second of hard work. It's because it's loving work.
What makes a Violinist a Virtuoso is the Luthier who is also a Virtuoso of his craft. The sharp eye, the keen mind, the soft and yet firm hands, of the skilled Luthier, make music in its own right. each shaving, each stroke, each carving makes the sounds of music to his ears. . Oh! too much love for this way too late. ECF
Cool video. The tree is the first participant in this process. The luthier is the second. I prefer to call them builders, not makers. Only Nature makes. Luthiers are builders because they put together the different parts into one object. On that note, I’d love to own one of his violins!
I don’t think you can still come close to the golden age violins due to the quality and age of the wood. Wood is over harvest and extremely hard to find hundreds of year old wood. Density is key.
That's generally how it works. A custom maker like this doesn't have standard models available for purchase whenever. You order exactly what you want and he makes it so the price varies a lot.
In my practice, although mostly as a guitar maker, this could be used either as a way to soften the hot hide glue (traditional animal protein-based glue) in seams that have gelled a little too quickly, or to again, soften the glue, in order to clean out some squeeze-out of glue from clamped joints. ruclips.net/video/NWum3Lmg7Do/видео.html
You could lightly glue two boards together and use a bandsaw to cut the curved profile into both of them so that you have two identical halves to act as a sort of mold for building a violin in.
A maestro in his own right. What a pleasure to watch and listen to his story.

Love the art of Violin making, it's an art form in itself.

This is beautiful! Simply magnificant!
Wonderful video! Can't believe it only has 5k views. Certainly deserves much much more.

What do you recommend for someone thinking about trying to make a violin?
If I were wanting to make my own violin for heirloom purposes, what would be the best place to start?
I don’t think you can still come close to the golden age violins due to the quality and age of the wood. Wood is over harvest and extremely hard to find hundreds of year old wood.
Density is key.
How many man hours does it take to make a finished instrument.
I love how you slightly relic the violin.
Personally I’m not a fan of relicing. But I see it’s appeal. I always say if you want to relic a. Instruments, lend it to a teenager for a week.
@@nickdryad you’re not funny
I have broken violin,I want to get it repaired how can I contact U
No prices on the website!
Well, when that happens I always say "If you need to ask for the price you can't afford it" the really expensive things never get a price tag. ;)
@@MathieuDeVinois ok put me down for half a dozen

What is the purpose of using steam at 4:22?
helping the wood "relax" and keep the shape of the bend without any stress

Do you have curved, one piece clamps that fit the shoulders and butt of the violin? If so how did you make them? Please.
You could lightly glue two boards together and use a bandsaw to cut the curved profile into both of them so that you have two identical halves to act as a sort of mold for building a violin in.
@@aniquinstark4347thank you.
How can I buy one of these violins, is there an email or website I can contact ?
Visit hudelmayer.com, but I'm not really sure whether you can order online or not. He also has workshop in London.
I make pies
Mud ? Because I'm proficient in meadow...
@@andrewvitale7128 Pork Pies!
Why on earth do you try to make it look old? Signs of age should be added by the owner over the years. Relicing is just sad.
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve never bought a new violin, but if I ever do, by god, I want it to look new!
