Ep 14. Maggini The real thing... or a copy? With Florian Leonhard

Are Maggini violins the most copied instrument? In the history of violin making Maggini is a must. https://www.lespetscamdenviolins.com.au/   / theviolinchronicles   https://theviolinchronicles.podbean.com/ I speak to two violin experts Florian Leonhard and Benjamin Hebbert about Giovannin Paolo Maggini. Maggini's Brescian style of making violins was very distinctive and an incredible amount of copies of this luthiers work has been copied in the intervening 400 years, the two violin makers I am talking to will shed light on why and how this came about and we will give you some tips on how to recognise a Maggini instrument and make one yourself....perhaps.
