Popular fiddle music from Northern Italy.
Compagnia Strumentale Tre Violini was born in 1987 by Bernardo Falconi, Giuliano Grasso e Giulio Venier, three fiddlers coming from different cities but sharing the same love for the Italian mountain fiddling.
After studying for several years the various Northern Italian fiddle styles, they edited in 1988 the book: “How to play Italian Fiddle”, also available in english version.
The three fiddlers, accompanied by a guitar and a three-stringed small bass, reproposed the traditional line-up of Northern Italian mountains.
Their first CD: “Matuzine” (1990) won in the year 1991 the Folkitalia Prize assigned by critics. The group recorded in 1995 their second CD: “Il Ballo Dei Pazzi”, performing unpublished Italian fiddle tunes from manuscripts and printed sources from XVIIth to XIXth century.
