Another beloved personage here in Todi has left us. Cesare Toppetti, our well-loved violin and cello maker, died this past December. Always ready with a smile or encouraging word, he was happy to show us his works in progress and his lovely masterpieces. If you were lucky, you'd hear him singing as you arrived at his workshop.
He will be greatly missed by everyone in the town, along with many artists all over the world. He was commissioned to make instruments that were used at La Scala, the Met, and other famous performance venues.
Sadly,
Alexandra
