Bergonzi, Carlo

Bergonzi, Carlo
   , Cremona, 1712 to 1750. Considered by authorities to be the best pupil of Stradiuarius. He made instruments of the same beautiful and brilliant tone which has rendered the productions of his master famous throughout the world. Constructed on similar principles, and generally of well-chosen wood, there is no doubt the productions of this excellent artiste will hereafter rank very high. Like Stradiuarius himself, Carlo Bergonzi is by some considered to have been at one time a pupil of Nicholas Amati. Every amateur would, if it were possible, get a Stradiuarius, an Amati, or a Guarnerius, but as the genuine violins of these makers are very rare and valuable, they should look for the veritable instruments of their pupils, which are now beginning to be highly esteemed on account of their intrinsic excellence.
