G B Ceruti was one of the few celebrated Cremonese makers from around the turn of the 19th century. The warm and creamy tone of this cello adapts well to both the Bach and Dvorak excerpts in the video above. The combination of Ceruti’s use of poplar wood and generous arching give rise to a wonderful depth of sound. Certificate of authenticity by Charles Beare.
