Denver Violins

We were delighted to have Ross Holmes at Denver Violins, and what an amazing time celebrating the last 😭😭😭 show of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band!!!!

Ross Holmes Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Help us wish this tiny violinist a big Happy Birthday today! 🎂 🎻✨

Happy Birthday, Nadya Hill !

Peter Bingen (b. 1974, Los Angeles, CA) is an award-winning luthier based out of Minneapolis who specializes in violins, violas, and cellos. A graduate of North Bennet Street School, he apprenticed with David Gusset and Andy Carruthers. Recognized for original design and exeptional tone, Bingen's accolades include a 2024 VSA Silver Medal.

This instrument is based on a beautiful Tononi cello that Peter had the pleasure of restoring over the course of a few years. The varnish reflects the dark red textured Venetian varnish from the original. The scroll is old growth ash rescued from an old barn in the midwest, the back is lightweight and strong poplar from the United States, the ribs are European maple, and the top is European spruce.

This cello has an astoundingly clean, even, and silvery sound: come on by and try it out for yourself!

Happy Worldwide Knit in Public Day!

Did you know that our very own Mackenzie Miller is a fiber arts enthusiast? In her own words:
“My mom and I learned to knit together when she was recovering form hip surgery in 2019, and the combination of working with my hands plus the puzzle and data/numbers aspect of knit patterns really got me hooked, and the more I keep learning about it, the cooler I think it is!”

It’s one thing to understand the mechanics of bow making, and quite another to understand the lived experience of the performer. That unique combination of perspectives is one of the many reasons we are so fortunate to have Evan Orman as a business partner at Denver Violins.

In addition to being a master archetier, Evan is an accomplished cellist AND bandoneón player. He studied tango music and bandoneón in Buenos Aires and has performed with the Black Oak Ensemble, Musique Dan Le Gers, Camerata San Antonio, the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, the Chicago Chamber Musicians, and the Virtuosi Chicago Chamber Orchestra, among many others. Evan has also toured with the band DeVotchKa—appearing on their album 100 Lovers—and is a founding member of Grande Orquesta Navarre.

At Denver Violins, the connection between makers and musicians is at the heart of what we do, creating an environment where collaboration and quality go hand in hand!
