Violoncello
piccolo
The violoncello piccolo with 5 strings I'm building
is based on the original one from Barak
Norman (1670-1740), London 1730.
Barak Norman is considered one of the eariest maker
of cello in England . The vibrating string length of the instrument
is 57,5 cm . As most of Barak Norman's viols also this cello has
an elaborate double purfling on both belly and back as well as
some geometrical inlaid purfling decorations on the back of the
instrument and a floral design on the belly.
