Mathias Albani [SEP] place of death
Mathias Albani
Mathias Albani (1621-1673) was a violin maker from Botzen (now Bolzano in South Tyrol).
Biography.
He was born in Botzen and became one of Jacob Stainer's best pupils. The tone of his violins, which are generally very high in the belly and have a dark red, almost brown, varnish, is more remarkable for power than for quality.
His son, also named Mathias, was at first a pupil of his father, afterwards of the Amatis at Cremona
