Violin by Wanna Zambelli, Cremona 2012 "Aure"

Resonant Tone for Professionals 

This violin creates a big, full voice with remarkable ease, requiring very little effort to draw out its best qualities. The tone is smooth and even throughout, promoting seamless transitions across registers without any imbalance or resistance. The instrument leans toward warmth and solidity, offering a rich and grounded sound that fills a room naturally. Finished in a pristine varnish, it is a high-quality instrument that is as consistent and reliable as it is rewarding to play.
