  Rainer W. Leonhard
Rainer Leonhardt is heir to a respected family master workshop reaching back
for generations. Located in the gorgeous medieval town of Mittenwald, with the
Isar river visible through the workshop windows on one side, ancient millstreams
full of trout on the other, and the majestic Bavarian Alps overlooking all, this
workshop produces a small number of instruments in the great German
tradition. Mr. Leonhardt attended the violin making school in Mittenwald,
completed his journeymanship in several well-known German workshops, and
was admitted as a Master Violinmaker in 1990. Since that time, he has worked
in the family workshop, of which he is now the leader. Mr. Leonhardt has won
numerous awards for tone and craftsmanship, and is currently on the
examination board for aspirants to the title of Master Violinmaker in Germany.

These master celli produce powerful, even tone over the entire range on all
four strings.  Their ease of response and clear, strong, colorful sound are a
treat for the player as well as the audience. Mr. Leonhardt's lifelong
background in luthiery, and his access to the finest European tonewoods
enable him to achieve these results on each of his professional model cellos.

  • Eastman raised all the prices on German instruments, so this has a
    higher list that I don't have access to right now.  I'll eventually post it.
  • Apparently my willingness to sell instruments for lower prices than other
    dealers has annoyed some of those other dealers. That's just too bad.  
    It's business. Other dealers: get over it.  Grow up.  
  • Players: rejoice in competition.  Play the market, ask everyone for their
    prices.  I'll probably beat everyone. That's my business model - best
    prices, best service.  Pretty simple.  Everyone wins who is willing to play
    the game.  

Our luthier Stephen Perry will gladly discuss the Leonhardt cello  and other fine
instruments with you.
