Instruments
On the following pages we would like to introduce you to our successful violin, viola, cello and viole da gamba models. Please note that these pages are still under construction!
I am often asked why my instruments do not take part in violin building competitions. For one thing, I find the criteria behind many of these competitions questionable. For another, I would rather invest my time and energy into building my instruments and in this way allow their owners to win the prizes. Thats the way it should be, from the way I see it.
This has happened on many occasions. Uilderk instruments have won the following competitions, among others:
- ARD contest
- Echo Klassik 2006 for the best performance in the category "Chamber Music Piece of the Year",
- The French recording industry prizes "Diapason d'Or" and "Choc de l'Annee 2005"
- First Place at the cello solo contest "Royal Overseas League Music Competition" in 2006
- Premio Paolo Borciani 2008
- First Place at the 6th Osaka International Chamber Music Competition
- The International String Quartet Contest TROMP in Eindhoven
As a little anecdote I would like to add a little something that supposedly took place once: After a concert given by the famous Sascha Heifetz, a music critic full of awe couldnt help but tell him how wonderful his Stradivarius had sounded that night. In response, the master went to his violin case, opened it and bent down to listen carefully and said I dont hear anything! This means nothing else than it is of course the performer who plays the most important role. The instrument plays the second fiddle, so-to-speak. The two must fit together well...
Obviously, my instruments should not only be a great joy for their owners, they should also put them in the position to perform professionally and successfully. In the following countries and ensembles you will find my instruments, although I do no claim that this list is by any means complete!
