History of this instrument
In 1997, the Musical Instrument Fund received a viola and two bows on loan from a private individual in Eindhoven. In 1999, this Italian violin, a cello, and a bow were added to the collection on loan. In 2013, the private collector decided to donate the entire collection to the fund! The violin was first loaned to Mascha van Sloten and Veselina Manikova and has been played by Roosje Reumkes-Dillingh since 2005.
