Description

This viola by Martin J. Hilsden is an excellent example of modern English making by one of Britain’s most respected contemporary luthiers. Trained at the renowned W.E. Hill & Sons workshops in London in the late 1960s, Hilsden went on to establish an independent reputation for instruments of exceptional craftsmanship, tonal maturity, and refined playability. At an ideal 15 3/4" size, this viola offers outstanding comfort without compromise in tonal depth, producing a warm, focused sound with excellent projection and clarity across the register. Beautifully made and finely balanced, it is a superb instrument for the serious player seeking distinguished British workmanship and an instrument of proven musical quality.
