Antonio Stradivari, also known as Stradivarius (1644-1737), was the legendary violin maker. Estimates are that from age twenty-two up until the year he died at age ninety-three he made more than a thousand violins, violas, and cellos. His methods created the standard for all that followed, as he brought the art of the violin making to its highest level - what is broadly regarded as perfection. Two of his most famous violins - the "Habenect" and the "Muntz" were made when he was ninety-two.
