So who are your favorite violin
makers? Want to travel to Cremona (Italy) or Mirecourt (France) with us? The Huthmakers have been very
fortunate and honored to know an exciting group of musicians, violin makers, bow
makers, music lovers, students, teachers and friends. Through our love of
music and instruments, we have had the privilege of traveling to many countries

We invite you to stroll through our
