The small town of Cremona, Italy, is “as lined with violin studios as Sonoma, California, is with wineries.” It’s where 16th-century violin maker Andrea Amati gave the cello, the viola, and the violin their recognizable contemporary forms, and where Antoni Stradivari made instruments of legendary beauty that still haunt audiences to this day.
