about the guitarmaker François Roudhloff (1781-1849) Francois Roudhloff originated from the Strasbourg area, did his apprenticeship with Breton at Mirecourt.
François Roudhloff "This instrument is a typical work of the French instrument maker Francois Roudhloff from around 1830. The stamp signature F. Roudhloff-Mauchant points to the time of his Paris workshop with the violin / guitar maker Nicolas Mauchant. Raphaella Smits about playing this Roudhloff guitar The sounds which the Roudhloff guitar offers to the Haydnesque Giuliani Sonata or the more aggressive Tarantella of Mertz, with the typically compact bass sound and great contrasts, are just great on this instrument of about 1830. |
