The Best Tool for Learning, Teaching and Making Music.

CREMONA PREMIER
VIOLAS, CELLOS & BASSES

The Cremona Premier Series of bowed instruments has become one of the most respected collections of string instruments available to the student community by using the same formula that we apply to our renowned Cremona Violins by placing tone, and playability center stage to produce instruments of exceptional quality and value.

 

For over 40 years, our singular mission has been to inform music educators that Cremona is the best tool for learning, teaching, and making music. We are the first American company to import violins directly for distribution in the USA, and subsequently to more than 50 countries around the world. Since then, Cremona has been the Music Industry Leader that other brands try to emulate.

 

We look forward to providing the music education community with the best tool for learning, teaching, and making music for many more years to come!

"Children are born into this world as good little citizens already possessing beautiful hearts. What music teachers can do is use a method of learning that celebrates diversity and nurtures creativity and individuality so children can find their own personal expression "

There should be music in the child's environment, just as there does exist in the child's environment spoken speech. In the social environment the child should be considered and music should be provided.
