A trustworthy and experienced modern violin maker takes pride in his creations and can offer you solid information on the products that he offers. From his workshops in Reghin, Romania, master violin maker Vasile Gliga crafts high quality handmade violins and other stringed instruments in a time proven Romanian family tradition, which utilizes sophisticated and time-tested finishing techniques along with modern tools. Near the "Italian Valley" of the Transylvanian forests, the Gliga Group fashions their instruments from the same Carpathian spruce and flamed maple that ancient Italian masters used for their now highly-prized antique violins. In such close proximity to these forests, Gliga's knowledge in violin construction has grown up around the characteristics of these woods. Like the accomplished luthiers of the past, Gliga transmits the soul of these unique woods into every violin, cello, viola, and double bass that he produces, making each instrument a one-of-a-kind personal expression of his passion for the craft. But unlike antique violins that command over-inflated prices, the full range of Gliga's instruments from beginner and student versions to maestro and special versions are available to anyone who desires a highly-resonant and aesthetically beautiful instrument at down to earth prices.
When they pick up an instrument, experienced musicians intuitively know how to find that sweet spot that will make a violin sing. But a good violin that has benefited from the perfect combination of high-quality wood and its violin-maker's careful and precise workmanship can sound absolutely spectacular. Professional players such as Yehudi Menuhin, who are blessed enough to be able to play original Cremonese masterpieces, have acknowledged and praised the fine craftsmanship of Gliga violins. Despite all the evidence to the contrary though, some musicians continue to insist that only antique violins can achieve that magical sound which results from an instrument surviving the test of time. In reality, often what these musicians truly value is aesthetic beauty and the connection one feels to the masters of the past when playing an instrument marked by a long history. You don't have to own an authentic Guarneri or Stradivari violin in order to feel in touch with the roots of an world that you decided to be part of.
