Roberto Cavagnoli Violin 2017
Robert Cavagnoli is an Italian Violin Maker born in 1975. He graduated from the International School of Violin Making in Cremona in 1993. He worked in the workshops of Barbara Piccinotti, and Angelo Sperzagai where his skill was developed.
Cavagnoli went to Australia in 2001 to work with James W. Robinson an Italian trained and American born luthier. After several years he went back to Cremona and continued his partnership with Barbara Piccinotti. He received many awards including the Silver Medal for tone quality from the Violin Society of America in 2004 and the third prize at the 11th International Competition ‘Triennale’ in Cremona for sound quality.
Cavagnoli was featured in the movie ‘Highly Strung’ (2015), directed by Scott Hicks. Roberto has certainly made a name for himself in the violin making world and continues working out of his workshop in the center of Cremona.
