Description

An unusual cello by the Venice-based luthier, with a rosette that harks back to his German training and influences. Includes measurements

‘Every Gofriller scroll seems improvised – if he used a template it was treated as the loosest guide – yet they all have the same stance and character. This early model doesn’t show his more extreme traits, but the style is truly established. There is something very viol-like about the way the pegbox unrolls slowly and the volutes lean backward.’ – John Dilworth in the December 2003 issue.

Domenico Montagnana ‘Farina’ cello 1730 poster

£22.95
Sold by: The Strad Shop
Domenico Montagnana was possibly the greatest cello maker in history, and the 1730 'Farina' was made during the period when he was at the height of his powers. Unlike most Montagnana cellos, it has never been cut down and retains its original proportions. Now owned by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the instrument has a very powerful sound with a wide array of colours. Previous owners have included May Mukle, one of the first successful female cello soloists. 'The abundant famous Venetian varnish is of a rich, dark red colour, with a fascinating array of textures and patinas. In the areas where the varnish has worn off, a beautiful golden amber ground is revealed. As with most uncut Montagnana cellos, the outline is wide in the upper bouts and corners, and deeply swept in at the C-bouts, with big, broad lower bouts.' - John Waddle and Steve Sirr in the July 2025 edition of The Strad. 'When making recordings, the sound engineer has to turn down my microphone because it sounds up to eight decibels louder than any other cello' - Ilya Finkelshteyn, principal cellist, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra Find out how more than 30 luthiers collaborated to build a copy of the c.1730 ‘Farina’ in the November 2023 Strad magazine article, "COPYING A MONTAGNANA CELLO – Robin Aitchison reports from the annual Oberlin Violin Makers Workshop"   ***Don't miss our Folded Poster Tailored Bundle.
