A new instrument by Floris van der Voort, has to be played for a while and probably needs an other bow, etc, but here a small première. What is a pardessus de viole? The pardessus de viole is the smallest size of viola da gamba. It was invented around 1690 possibly as the brainchild of the famous gambist Marin Marais and the luthier Michel Colichon. It started out as an instrument with six strings and then was modified over its 100-year lifetime to have five and then four strings. ernst stolz
