In this live recording the focus is on sound itself. Can a characteristic of sound be heard among instruments created by the same log of spruce and the hands of one specific violin maker, even if played by different instrumentalists? Violin maker Jacob von der Lippe has gained worldwide recognition for his handmade stringed instruments, coming out of his workshop in Oslo, Norway. The world premiere recording «Sculpted Sound» is the fruit of this unique relationship between the violin maker and his special musicians.
How do vastly different venues highlight various aspects of the same instruments? And how about the development of one violin maker through a span of twenty years? Through a series of concerts in spectacular venues around Oslo these questions were explored. The audience was invited for a truly special experience with musicians playing their own instruments made by violin maker Jacob von der Lippe, and we have attempted to capture that atmosphere here on this live recording.
