Cremoʹnas

Violins of the greatest excellence; so called from Cremoʹna, where for many years lived some makers of them who have gained a world-wide notoriety, such as Anʹdrea Amaʹti and Antonio his son, Antoʹnius Stradivaʹrius his pupil, and Giuseppe Guarneʹrius the pupil of Stradivaʹrius. Cremona has long since lost its reputation for this manufacture.
