Description
From the first notes I played on this violin, I was absolutely fascinated by its sound. It has the usual qualities you would expect from a high-end violin from Marc in terms of projection, resonance, balance, etc but it has the most distinctive palette of sounds one could ask for. Perhaps this is partly from the model Marc was inspired by, the "Ole Bull" Guarneri, or a combination of the craft and sound ideals Marc was going for but it is one of the more unique violins (antique or new) I have played on in a long time. It would be hard not to fall in love with this one!

Marc Paquin

Marc Paquin discovered in 2000 his passion for violin making. He had the great chance to learn in Switzerland with Philippe Girardin and Sylvain Rusticoni, winners of gold medals in Cremona and in the United-States. He also followed restoration courses with Jean-Jacques Fasnacht.

Since 2006 Marc Paquin has been investigating on his own about sound, power, timbre and playability of string instruments. They are nowadays being played all around the world by professionals and international soloists, such as Sergey Malov, Leticia Moreno, Jean-Jacques Kantorow, Tatiana Samouil, Sungsic Yang,… in Spain, England, Switzerland, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Austria, USA, Canada, Korea, China, Australia,…

“Marc Paquin is a unique violin maker. His violins have a great powerful sound, are easy to play from day 1 and look very appealing. It was a great joy for me to inaugurate Marc’s new violin, having the maker accompanying me playing the Schumann Concerto in Granada.“
