A Fine American Viola by David Folland, Salt Lake City 1983
This fine contemporary American viola was made by David Folland in 1983, the year he graduated from the Violinmaking School of America in Salt Lake City. At 16”, it delivers a great body of sound but has some of the best playability and response of any of the violas currently available in our shop. Tonally, it has a lovely depth and sonority to the low end and a brilliance in the higher registers while being smooth throughout. It features lovely workmanship and materials throughout and a spectacular varnish. It is definitely a favorite among our staff of players and is suited to the advanced student, teacher or professional violist.
