To tame the wood is not easy though many hands can do. But to make the wood sing the heavenly melody, a rare can do. A rare one as Ferron Valerio, maker of magical instruments with a workshop in Cremona, Italy. Ferron creates the charisma between beauty of the wood and beauty of the sound. Just like a true photographer: a good composition with a good story behind. In this world of fake beauty, this luthier is a true treasure. His instruments blossom in this late autumn forest. His instruments, carefully made by his young hands, magically transfer the soul of the tamed wood, with the heart of the player, into the immortal memory of the universe.
Recently this luthier has dedicated one of his instruments to me. It is a carved head viola, figure of my head. On Valerio's blog page you can preview photographs of the viola.
