Atelier für Geigenbau Hefti

No symphony orchestra or chamber ensemble can do without string instruments. Violin makers are responsible for making and maintaining the violins and violas. Forty years ago, Felix Hefti from Basel was introduced to the centuries-old art of violin making. Thirty years ago, he opened his own workshop on Holbeinstrasse. At the Telebar, he now demonstrates his age-old craft and talks about the future of violin making in the digital age.
