This collection includes violins, violas, and violoncellos da spalla shaped through more than two decades of performance-led refinement by violin and violoncello da spalla maker Dmitry Badiarov — both on the concert stage and in the atelier. A commission begins with a conversation about the model, setup, and artistic direction you wish to pursue.
