Igino (Iginius) Sderci (1884 - 1983) was born in Florence, Italy. He devoted his entire career to violin making, studying under master maker Leandro Bisiach. A very prolific maker making more than 700 instruments including many large violas. He won gold medals at the prestigious Stradivarius Exhibition at Cremona in 1937 marking the bicentanary of Stradivari's death (as well as prizes in 1949). From his earliest childhood Igino Sderci was interested in music & art. He studied sculpture in Siena and had a gift for wood carving. He made his first violin without supervision. In Siena Sderci was taken under the wing of Leandro Bisiach, who valued the young man's skills highly. In 1917 he went to Milan and worked in the workshop of Leandro Bisiach. Under his guidance he refined his skills and worked with Leandro Bisiach for about 14 years before leaving for Florence to establish his own workshop. Igino Sderci copied the models of Stradivarius and Guarneri and reflected their influence as his instruments are full of character and made with utmost care. Without exception he used wood of the highest quality and fine varnish mainly of an amber-yellow shade.〔(Liuteria Parmense )〕 ==References== * Italian & French Violin Makers by Jost Thoene 2006 * Dictionary of 20th Century Italian Violin Makers - Marlin Brinser 1978 * I Maestri Del Novecento - Carlo Vettori * Dictionary of 20th Century Italian Violin Makers - Marlin Brinser 1978 * Universel del Luthiers - Rene Vannes 1951,1972, 1985 (vol.3) * Universal Dictionary of Violin & Bow Makers - William Henley 1970 * (Liuteria Parmense ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Igino Sderci」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
