A violin by Gregg Alf, Ann Arbor 2011

Price range: £25,000 - £50,000

Born in 1957 Gregg Alf made his first violin in 1975 and graduated from  the Cremona International School of Violin-Making in 1984. As a violinist himself, he primarily focuses on tonal quality as well as a certain aesthetic that was shaped by his early years of violinmaking in Italy and his careful study of great Italian instruments.  In 1984, in Ann Arbor, MI he founded a workshop with Joseph Curtin and it was during this time that many luminaries discovered his work; Elmar Oliveira, Ruggiero Ricci, and Zvi Zeitlin. A 1993 violin made by Curtin & Alf for Elmar Oliveira set a record at a Sotheby’s auction for the highest price paid for a violin by a living maker.  He opened his own shop In Ann Arbor, MI in 1997 and currently works in Venice, Italy.  He has also received numerous awards from the Violin Society of America for his work.

 

This is a great Stradivari copy with a tone to match!
