The KLANG GESTALTEN Group
Since 1997, 22 professional violinmakers and bowmakers set up an international network. They exchange. They learn. And they inspire each other.
They also perform together - KLANG GESTALTEN is the name of their annual exhibition, too. Musicians and makers meet in a relaxed atmosphere. They talk. They appraise their
instruments and listen to concerts being played with the exhibited pieces.
Thus they whet their appetites for sound.
For October 2011, Klanggestalten again invites musicians to come to the Hamburg, Germany: The Mozartsäle, Moorweidenstr. 36, D- 20146 Hamburg, will host the exhibition from November 18th to 20th, 2011.
