Product Information:
Ernst Schnabl Violas
The Ernst Schnabl workshop operates in the time-honored tradition of the late 19th century European workshops. Chisels, knives, and scrapers, in the hands of outstandingly gifted craftspeople, are the primary tools used to create these modern instruments. These techniques impart each instrument with a beautiful voice and appearance that can only be achieved by hand.
Ernst Schnabl creates two models of viola, the “Bellini†and the “Sarasateâ€. Each model has its own unique tonal qualities providing today’s string players quality instruments at affordable prices.
