SNODI - 50% SCIENZA 50% ARTE

Telling the music, page after page

Snodi is a documentary series that in five episodes immerses the viewer in the world of artisan violin making, a very ancient and highly valuable practice, traveling between Switzerland and Italy. Starting from the encounter between the musician and the luthier, passing through the creation of the instrument, up to the discovery of its "voice", unique and different for each of them: this is the goal of the series, to touch its deepest strings which make it so unique in the world, in a working agreement between the two parent figures who meet for a common purpose, that is to give the instrument its own voice. The images are joined by a chorus of interviews given by musicians, sound engineers and master craftsmen, in which they report and tell the viewer their experiences of life, creation and sound. Each episode closes with the performance of an original piece played by the musician with the instrument specially made by the luthier for him, showing us the final result of the creative process.
