Ep. 64: Let's cook some Oil Varnish!

Dear Friends,

But for my non patrons here the free version.
Actually we made the recording beginning of December but due to the fact that the recording took few hours it caused quite some problems to transfer and elaborate this video because of its file size.
A huge thank-you goes to my two daughters; without them, all this would not be possible.
Nina who is the motivational power and thanks to her unstoppable momentum was freezing with me in the most freezing corner of my garden, and thanks to Anna, who elaborated with extreme ability, patience and lots of laughing three times this quite long video in order that her super dad is able to show off here right now.
Take your time and watch carefully, there is lots of great and precious advice.
In this video, you have the unique chance to capture what it really takes to simply cook the perfect violin varnish. An Amber and Linseed Oil Varnish which helps a great violin to be outstanding and which will guarantee a master made instrument to be protected for the next centuries.
My Master made instruments deserve the best violin varnish to age gracefully.
For those who know already everything and want to know only the recipe:
300 grams of Amber
350 ml of Linseed oil
But believe me, after you watched the entire video you might agree that the most important part is not the quantities but the how and when you detect the right moment to go to the next step. That's why I believe it is much more important to listen to every single word of this video and all my other videos.
Great Mastery can not be transmitted, you have to give yourself the chance to acquire your mastery. This took me by now 35 years and is a learning process which never stops.

All the best from Cremona,
