Pasquale Sardone was born on July 7th, 1979 in Altamura (Bari, Italy), and grew up in Poggiorsini (Buenos Aires), where, since he was a boy, he had a passion for music and musical instruments.

In 2001 he moved to Cremona to attend the “Antonio Stradivari International Violinmaking School”, where he learnt how to make string instruments, with his Master Violin maker Giorgio Scolari.

He graduated in 2005 and then he started an apprenticeship in the workshop of Master Giorgio Grisales, under the guidance of Giorgio and his nephew Ricardo. During this time Pasquale further developed his interest and passion for double basses.

In 2013 he opened his own workshop in Persico Dosimo (Cremona) where he makes, repairs and restores instruments.

His work is a continuous evolution through studies and researches of the classical and contemporary violinmaking schools, varnishes and shapes, in order to achieve the right balance between aesthetic and sound.
