Benoit Bonten

French | Based in Livinhac-le-Haut, France

Passionate about music, I first started getting interested in violin making when I was in Buenos Aires in 2001. I spent most of my time in the workshop of Omar Nigrelli, under whose tutelage I first started studying restoration and subsequently violin making. In 2008, I became the assistant of Gonzalo Bayol, a string instrument maker in Santiago de Compostela. I am now in my own workshop in Aveyron, and I specialise in violas and cellos.
