An alto violin by Robert J. Spear With a body length of 495 mm (about 19 1/2 inches), this instrument gives you the sound of the alto voice as you have always wanted to hear it-- rich, resonant, and powerful enough to hold its own in any orchestral setting. |
Welcome! |
Singing Woods Violin is a violin shop with a difference. Here you will find items that most other makers just don't offer. Altos played vertically (like the one pictured on the left), true tenor violins, soprano violins, little violas for small hands, big violins for a big sound, and instruments of the New Violin Family in addition to conventional violins, violas, and cellos. If you are a builder of New Violin Family Instruments, you will be able to obtain many of those impossible-to-find parts here such as compact end pin assemblies for the vertical alto and tenor violins, tailguts that really fit, and cases, strings, and accessories as well. Hello to all the great folks I met at the New Directions Cello Festival at Ithaca College on June 6. Check soon in the "what's New" section for pictures and clips of "The Great New Fam Jam" that rocked the room on Saturday afternoon. |
