Detail Introduction
Ferdinand A. Homolka (also known as Ferdinand August Vincenc Homolka) was from the famous violin-makers family that came from Velvary 。 Together with the founder, Emanuel Adam Homolka (1796-1849) the family had 9 members. He constructed the violins according to the models of Stradivari, J. Guarneri and N. Amati. His instruments were getting near the Italian originals also by the quality of tone. This is evidently why the significant violin connoisseur, Lütgendorff writes about him as the Prague Stradivari. F. A. Homolka excelled also as the brilliant conservator of old instruments. In the recording you can hear the sound of the violin from 1882 he constructed in his workshop in Hus Street according to the Stradivari’s model.
