Recently acquired out of France, this Danish violin by Hvilsted crafted in 1934. immediately impresses both precision and symmetry, with evident attention to every detail and an attractive back length of 355mm. This violin has a broad, colorful voice with consistent overtones, a clear, direct quality, ample flexibility, and commendable projection.
