Find Your Model

Professional musicians develop highly individual relationships with sound, response, projection, articulation, balance, and physical comfort over years of playing. For this reason, choosing an instrument is rarely a matter of specifications alone. At Badiarov Violins, the process begins with a conversation about repertoire, sound, existing instruments, physical considerations, and the musical role the instrument is expected to fulfil. From there, we can recommend a model, proportions, setup, and direction appropriate to the musician and the work the instrument is intended to serve. Not every musician can own a Stradivari. Every musician still needs a voice. Since 1992, these voices have been co-created together with musicians.
