Andrew Russon
Originally I wanted to become concert pianist – the piano gave me inner peace. I started late but got the diploma early in Luxembourt, my teacher believed in me as pianist.
But I also was troubled by the question why people suffer – thus became MD and keep the piano as a hobby. After my medical studies my re-discovery of faith made me play the organ as well.

I was born in 1945 in Schlesien and my first violin teacher made me interested in building violins since he did himself. Before retiring as cardiologist I took classes since 2008 and learnt from Jozef Novak in Slowakia. Since my retirement in 2010 I fully work in building violins and also play in two orchestras.

Franjo Kresnik
Category : instrumentBuilderDocs , monumentDocs
Dr. Franjo (Franz) Kresnik (born Wien 1869 – died Rijeka 1943) was an excellent physician and a Central European intellectual, a bohemian mind whose two loves in life made him very special. His passions were medicine and violin making. Most of his life was spent in Sušak (now a part of Rijeka, Croatia), where he worked, played music and studied the art of making stringed instruments. He visited Cremona on several occasions and studied a number of violins, drawings and tools made and used by old masters. For his profound knowledge of Cremonese violin making the Italians dubbed him “Uomo che legge violini” (The Man Who Can Read Violins). In his workshop he made fifty-two violins, two violas, two cellos and a string quartet. Some of these instruments are still played in Europe and America. The remaining violins and possessions (tools, manuscripts, drawings, literature and countless diplomas and certificates) have been kept in a memorial room at the Maritime and History Museum of the Croatian Littoral in Rijeka. In addition, a street near the Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka is named after Franjo Kresnik.

Hans Walz
Category : instrumentBuilderDocs
Hans Walz had a DDR folk music group the “Stieger Walzmusikanten” and built historical instruments as this Hillebille with which his family band performed.
Folk music of the Harz (mountain chain in the middle of Germany) area has fascinated Dr.med. Hans Walz, especially when performed on historical Harz instruments like the “devils violin” or the “Hillebille”. The general practitioner and lung specialist who settled his office in the little town Stiege in the eastern Harz does not only like the music but builds these special instruments.
In 1997 he has received the “cultural reward Harz” for his activities as conductor of the “Stieger Walzmusikanten” (folk music group) and for maintaining old traditions.
Being 57 years old in 1997 he already moved to the east Harz in 1968 right after his medical degree and made his specialization there. After growing contacts to inhabitants of the area he began to make copies of the instrument “Rumpelpott” for children in 1976. Since then he intensified this new hobby always more. So he build instruments with strange historical names like “Harzer Köhlergeläut, Fadenreibtrommel, Hillebille, Gemshornschalmei or Teufelsgeige”.
Mostly the instructions were not only retrievable through special literature but only over elder citizens who had inherited this knowledge.
Through his copies he not only saved these instruments from being forgotten but also helped them to get new popularity confirmed the regional authorities.
He not only performs in the Harz with his ensemble but they have done tours to Brasile, Estland, Finnland, Polen, Hungary and Russia.
In 1997 they even plan a tour to Peru.
