STRADIVARI-CREMONA MYSTERY DISCLOSED
by Peter Molenaar
2nd edition (copyright 2000)

This updated edition will help you to make violins that approach the tone and appearance of the Cremona masters. It has 89 pages of text and several diagrams and photographs to explain how to make and apply this old Italian
primer coat, colours and oil varnish used in Cremona and elsewhere in Europe from the 1500's until about 1775. Pete was a professional luthier who studied Chemistry and researched many old documents about varnishing violins. He studied and experimented with primer coats, colours and varnish for 40 years of his life. He made and sold many violins, violas
and cellos in The Netherlands, Paris and Canada. The index cross-references important names, concepts and technical terms.
Note: Pete's family wanted some colour photos of some of his instruments included at the back of this edition -- these were not in the first edition..
