Violas
Handmade violas with a deep, dark-hued voice — built by hand in the classical tradition by Cremona-trained luthier Gregorio Martini.
About the violas
The viola is the alto voice of the violin family, tuned a fifth below the violin to C, G, D and A. Slightly larger than a violin, it is prized for its veiled, dark and warm tone, which binds the harmony of the string quartet and the orchestra together.
Because the ideal viola would be too large to play comfortably, every maker has to balance size, response and depth of sound. Gregorio Martini's violas are designed for that balance: comfortable under the hand, with a rich and resonant lower register.
