History of NSVM edited by Helen Michetschläger

Newark School of Violinmaking – the first 50 years

The academic year 2022-23 saw the 50th anniversary of Newark School of Violin Making, where I had my training in the 1970s. To mark this, I produced a booklet outlining the history of the school. It’s in full colour, 48 pages, illustrated with many images including some lovely original black and white photos from the 1970s.

Contents:

The history of Newark School of Violin Making by Ariane Todes
Students at NSVM 1972-2023 – a list of former students including interviews by Ariane Todes with former students of all generations
Life after Newark – where students have gone on to work, how many have stayed in the trade etc|
Map showing representation of former Newark students worldwide
Staff at NSVM
Timeline of major dates in the history of the school.
