ABOUT ME

Once I graduated from the "Civica Scuola di Liuteria" in Milan, I continued my training, in quartet instruments construction and restoration, by working with Italian Master stringed-instruments makers such as Luca Primon in Trento and Igor Moroder in Turin.

After working in Saint-Etienne, with the violin maker Patrick Charton, in 2013, I joined Pierre Mastrangelo's workshop, Pierre Gerber's successor, in Lausanne.

These different experiences enabled me to encounter many ancient instruments belonging to the golden age of violin-making.

Eager to expand my knowledge in old varnishes, I participated in several specialised courses with the fine art restorer and chemist François Perego.

I played with the OSUL in Lausanne and, I currently play in an orchestra in Sion. I thus have a daily instrumental practice, which allows me to listen carefully to the instruments as well as understand the requirements of musicians.

Golden medal with a violin, Pisogne competition in Italy.

Golden medal with a cello realised in collaboration with the violin maker Gianmaria Stelzer, Pisogne competition in Italy, too.

In 2019, I have taken over the violin workshop in Sion.
