Giuseppe Pedrazzini (Pizzighettone, near Cremona, 13 Jan 1879 – 19 Oct 1957) was an Italian violin maker. He was a pupil of Romeo Antoniazzi in Milan, then began to work on his own there. He quickly gained recognition and won awards at various exhibitions, including those in Rome in 1920 and in Cremona in 1937. He modelled his instruments after various patterns, especially those of Stradivari, G.B. Guadagnini and Amati, all of which he interpreted freely. Tonally his work is among the best of the early 20th-century Italian makers. He was a meticulous and elegant craftsman; the scrolls of his instruments are always deeply carved, and the symmetrically rounded curves of the bouts and flanks provide a distinctive touch. Besides new instruments, he made a number of skilful antiqued copies. He used a variety of different labels and, depending on the period, one of three different brands. A good part of his output was exported, and he had particularly close ties with Hawkes & Son (later Boosey & Hawkes) in London. Among his pupils and associates were Ferdinando Garimberti, P. Parravicini and his nephew N. Novelli. ==References== * * La Liuteria Italiana / Italian Violin Making in the 1800s and 1900s - Umberto Azzolina (Milan, 1964) * I Maestri Del Novicento - Carlo Vettori * La Liuteria Lombarda del '900 - Roberto Codazzi, Cinzia Manfredini 2002 * C.
