Catalin Quercinola
Catalin Quercinola trained with Ken Beckmann (Mission, Kansas) for five years in violin repair, design and making before refining his skills with the advice of experts such as Amos Hargrave and Bruce Carlson. All of his instruments are made without the assistance of technology unavailable to luthiers in the 17th century (such as power tools) or prefabricated components. He lives in Eudora, Kansas with his family and completes all new instruments at his home workshop. His instruments are available at several fine shops nationwide.
