The name of Andrea Amati first appeared in a rental deed dated 1539 found in the town's archives. The document stated that the magister, son of Gottardo, rented a house and workshop in the quarter known as 'Isola' where other great Cremonese makes would work in the following years. From 1566, Andrea built a whole orchestra of instruments for the French court's dances. The last group of instruments was probably delivered in 1572, on the occasion of Charles IX's marriage. The earliest violin of Cremona's Violin Museum collection and one of the earliest surviving violins, the Carlo IX by Andrea Amati, is played by Federico Guglielmo on this new release. Italian violinist and conductor Federico Guglielmo was defined by The Boston Globe as "the new star in the panorama of ancient music. " He is recognized worldwide for his performances of Vivaldi and Tartini works.
