Ignazio Emilietti Stradivari Pattern Viola 15.5" featuring select European tonewoods, hand-crafted workshop construction, and a traditional Cremonese-inspired design. Includes case.
The Ignazio Emilietti 15.5" Viola is a finely crafted step-up instrument designed for advancing players seeking a responsive, expressive instrument with refined tonal character. Built in a Stradivari-inspired pattern, it combines traditional craftsmanship with carefully selected materials to deliver a rewarding playing experience.
A carved European spruce top paired with highly figured European maple back and ribs produces a warm, resonant voice with excellent balance and projection.
