hello to everyone!
i am posting this message in hopes of reaching those who are in the
possesion of any martin karall stringed instruments. i own a violin
made for me by this master maker for several years now. this
instrument has such a complex and smooth yet powerful tone. not only
are his instruments a joy to play, they are a visual masterpiece. by
mr karall's estimates, he has created between 250-300 instruments.
those who have been fortunate enough to play a karall will understand
my passion for his instruments.
this message is for those who are gifted with owning martin karall instruments. i am interested in starting a symposium of karall
instruments in his hometown of vancouver bc, canada. i am trying to
organize a collection for display set for sometime in january of 1999.
mr. karall is now in his mid-eighties and this would mean everything
to a man who has dedicated his life in crafting and perfecting his
art. thank you.
those interested please email me at:

I got to know Martin just before he passed away. I have the second last violin he made. I treasure it. It is like playing a Strad.I know many of his instruments are owned by extremely good players including players in the Minneapolis symphony orchestra.He was a wonderful maker and man.He had many signed posters on the walls of his basement home workshop in East Vancouver of the top violinists including Yehudi Menuhin, David Rubinoff and Anne Sophie Mutter and others from his days in Vienna before
