Former apprentice to Richard Weichold, Viertel later joined August Riechers of Berlin, and is consdered by some to have been his most talented pupil. He continued to use Reicher's varnish formula, here of a golden brown colour on a pale ground, working mainly on the models of Stradivari. He is reputed to have fitted his bass bars after varnishing, claiming improved tone thereby. |

With broad, balanced and powerful tone, easily produced yet capable of great sensitivity, this violin would certainly not disappoint any player, of classical or traditional music. Home trial can be arranged without difficulty, regardless of location, and interesting part exchange offers are always welcome. Thanks for looking in. |
