Roberto Regazzi

Roberto Regazzi, född 22 augusti 1956 i Bologna, Italien, italiensk violinmakare och författare. Han inledde sin yresbana under sent 1970-tal som lärling hos Otello Bignami. Fortfarande aktiv i sin hemstad.

Biografi 

Regazzi började tillverka sina första instrument redan som 14-åring, då mest klassiska gitarrer under översyn av Alan Wilcox och Renato Scrollavezza. När han fick chansen att bli lärling hos Otello Bignami avbröt han sina påbörjade studier i fysik på Bolognauniversitet och inledde sin karriär som professionell violinmakare. Redan i slutet av 1979, då han fortfarande var lärling, öppnade han sin första butik.
Han har varit president för specialistorganisationen The European Association of Violin and Bow Makers.

Innan det nya århundradet började hans produktion bli inspirerad av Guarneri del Gesù, för att åstadkomma ett rikt och fullt ljud.

Hans verk är även inspirerade av Ansaldo Poggi och Otello Bignami (Augusto Pollastri's Bolognese School).

År 2006 fick han av sin stad Bologna, en speciell utmärkelse för den prestige han har bidragit till att ge sin stad.

Välkända artister och musiker som har satt upp sina namn på hans väntelista, köpt eller spelar hans instrument inkluderar Boris Belkin, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Ruggiero Ricci, Salvatore Greco, Giovanni Adamo, Uto Ughi, Franco Gulli, Riccardo Brengola, the Quartetto di Venezia.
