Adriano Spadoni

Adriano Spadoni

Cremona, 2008. Spadoni was born in Russia where he studied the cello for a number of years. Before coming to Italy he studied the restoration and preservation of fine old wood artifacts. He graduated from the Cremona School in 1999 and worked with a number of important makers before setting up his own workshop three years ago. We were so impressed with his cello at our Cremona Exhibition last hear that we decided to buy it.
