The New Violin Family Association is an international group of musicians, scientists,
instrument makers and music lovers, people who want to share in the challenging
possibilities opened for the musical world by a consort of eight violins of a
new type, from treble to contrabass. The design of this Octet of violins has
been made possible for the first time in history by the combination of 20th century
acoustical science and the skills and knowledge of expert modern violin-makers.
