This next group of images were part of "The Sound of Bologna," a 2002 exhibition on the violin makers of Bologna (Exhibit book available here). One of these was Claudio Gamberini (1895-1965 [or 1948?], Cento), who also headed the plucked string division at Mozzani's combined "laboratory-school" around 1930. He then joined with Mozzani in a private workshop when the school closed. He is seen in the foreground of the first photo, and several of the other images. The other players are unknown to me. Nearly all of the harp guitars in this series seem to be Mozzanis - most likely built by Gamberini and his team of craftsmen. Images copyright and courtesy of Bologna violin scholar Roberto Regazzi. |
This next group of images shows Mozzani's star pupil, Mario Maccaferri, with various Mozzani harp guitars, many of which he owned until his death. Most images are from either Michael Wright's book, Guitar Stories Vol II, or Francois Charle's book, The Story of Selmer Maccaferri Guitars - the priceless photographs mostly supplied by Maria Maccaferri. |
