This is the second time we have made a cello based on this illustrious Stradivari cello which was once played by Jacqueline du Pré. Much more recently it has been heard in the superb hands of Yo-Yo Ma in recitals of the music of Bach as part of the BBC proms late night series in 2015. This cello continues to inspire, amaze and challenge us all in the workshop in our attempts to emulate it’s remarkable sonic qualities.
