The KLANG GESTALTEN Group
Since 1997, 16 young professional violinmakers and six bowmakers set up an international network. They exchange. They learn. And they inspire each other.
They also perform together - KLANG GESTALTEN is the name of their annual exhibition. Musicians and makers meet in a relaxed atmosphere. They talk. They appraise their
instruments and listen to concerts being played with the exhibited pieces.
Thus they whet their appetites for sound.
For October 2007, Klanggestalten again invites musicians to come to the heart of Berlin, Germany: The "Meistersaal am Potsdamer Platz", Köthener Str. 38, D- 10963 Berlin-Mitte, will host the exhibition from October 26th to 28th 2007.
