Benoit Rolland is one of the finest bow makers working today. Growing up in a highly musical family he began playing the piano later switching to the violin which he studied at the Paris Conservatory. In 1971 he began studying bow making with Bernard Ouchard in Mirecourt. In 1976 he opened his own workshop in Paris. His shop was frequented by many of the most important string musicians. He and his wife moved to Boston in 2001. His bows are in such demand that they are difficult to find. We are pleased to be able to offer this fine cello bow which was made in the 1990’s in Paris.
