Life of Antonio Stradivari (Stradivarius)

This is a great movie about the life of Antonio Stradivari, as well as two other great violin-makers of that time, Nicolo Amati and Guiseppe Guarneri del Gesu. It is extracted from a much longer Soviet-era movie about a stolen Stradivarius violin in modern times. We have added English subtitles. The setting is Cremona, Italy, in the mid-1600’s thru early 1700’s, where these great masters lived and created their masterpieces. The movie shows how Antonio Stradivari learned to make violins from the Master Nicolo Amati, whose family had been making violins for 100 years. We see how Stradivari rose from being unknown, to being recognized as the Master violin maker of Europe. Also his frustration in trying to pass his knowledge to his sons, in order to continue the violin-making tradition. Finally it shows how one of Stradivari’s sons discovered Giuseppe Guarneri and commissioned him to make his instruments for the Church. Guarneri’s grandfather had also studied with Amati, and so the tradition of violin making was passed down from Amati to both Stradivari and Guarneri. With excellent plot, dialogue, period settings and costumes, the movie is a ‘must see’ for all lovers of the violin and its history.
