At the exhibition in Froville, France
| Michael Albanus (1677-1730) descended from a dynasty of highly gifted Tyrolean masters from Bozen (now Bolzano). An excellent violin by his father, Matthias Albanus, is in the collection. Michael emigrated to Graz, worked in the atelier of Wolfgang Sagmayr, which he took over after his death. His work reminds one of Jakob Stainer, who was the most esteemed master of the Habsburg Empire, indeed of all of Europe |
At present this bass viola da gamba is on permanent loan to Lúcia Krommer,
Pecs, Hungary, who is a principal member of the Orpheon Consort.
