释义 | {{Multiple issues|{{unreferenced|date=January 2012}}{{orphan|date=January 2012}} }} Arnold Voigt (1864 - 1952) is a stringed instrument maker and luthier of the 19th to 20th century. He was born in Markneukirchen, and worked there from 1890 till his death. During that time, he made copies of Stradivari and other types of Cremonese violins. He was a student of Heberlein. He was the first of the Voigt family to settle in England (from 1885 and 1890) and some of his stringed instruments, especially his violins, were made there. He also made some fine bows for violin, cello, and viola, which can reach prices of up to £3000. The tonal quality of these instruments can be rather hard, but with almost no limit to volume.{{citation needed|date=February 2013}} The family of Voigt is largely associated with the London-based firm of that name, but it is true that the Voigt family never really gave up its German roots. This was truly a large family - the French authority René Vannes lists no less than 43 violin makers of that name. Arnold Voigt (1864 - 1952), who was a student of Heberlein, in fact spent merely 5 years in London - from 1885 to 1890. For the rest, he lived and worked in his birth city - Markneukirchen, where he also died. He was prolific in his output as violinmaker, but Henly also calls him 'an expert bow maker. Faithful representations of celebrated models worked with an artistic eye.' Arnold Voigt bows please from every perspective - it demonstrates beautiful workmanship on good material. The heads are a statement in elegance - more French than German. They bears Arnold Voigt's stamp on the shaft in the usual place, and also has the intertwined 'AV' logo embossed into the left flank of the frog, making this certainly his authentic work. In England the firm of Voigt was the great competitor for the firm of W. E. Hill & Sons - in many respects their output was very much on a par, and situates this bow well in quality. {{DEFAULTSORT:Voigt, Arnold}} 3 : 1864 births|1952 deaths|Bowed string instrument makers |
