The Maker:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This 2017 Cesare Valli cello, handmade in Beijing, is a fine example of a superbly crafted Chinese instrument.<\/p>\n

Appearance:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marked with lovely golden brown varnish on the front and speckled dark stripping on the back, the Cesare Valli cello is ideally suited for the advancing student cellist.<\/p>\n

Sound & Feel:<\/strong><\/p>\n

With easy playability, it is astonishing the level of depth, resonance, and character one can elicit from this fine instrument. The tonal quality is one of complexity and subtlety, offering a deeply rich lower voice that exhibits a dark evenness of sound, which is complemented by the sweet yet warm lyricism of the upper register.<\/p>\n

Materials:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Belly: Spruce, two-piece<\/p>\n

Back: Maple, two-piece<\/p>\n
