About Violins: Â Throughout the sixteenth century the anatomy of bowed instruments were being experimented with. Â It is conceivable that the size and tuning of a violin existed quite early historically. Â The codification of our traditional symphonic instruments came later when large musical arrangements became popular, but the instruments themselves had been developed much earlier. Â
Also: Â Savo plays a 10-string Viol.
