Instruments:
Violas da Gamba:
1960 Gunter Helwig 7string bass after Tielke
1977 Day/Battell 6 string division bass after Norman
For those of you familiar with viol makers, check your prejudices at the door. These instruments have been set up and modified by William Monical on Staten Island (my "primary care physician"), and you won't find better sounding or playing viols anywhere. Guaranteed.
