Alberto Bologni<\/b>, violin, who graduated from the Cherubini Conservatory in Florence with highest honors and later obtained a soloist diploma from the Rotterdam Conservatory, owes his training to the contribution of  some of Europe’s most celebrated violin traditions: Sandro Materassi  served as a liaison with the Venetian school of Giulio Pasquali and the German-Hungarian school of Jeno Hubay, while Stephan Gheorghiu and Ilya Grubert  passed on to him the teachings of the Russian-Soviet school of Oistrack and Kogan.<\/div>\n
One of the most versatile violinists of his generation, Alberto Bologni in fact tackles a solo and chamber repertoire that places rarities and rediscoveries alongside the best-known masterpieces as well as a large number of compositions by contemporary composers, often dedicated to him or commissioned by him, performing regularly in major Italian and European centers.  He holds the chair of violin at the Luigi Boccherini Conservatory of Lucca. He plays a Santo Serafino ex Cesare Ferraresi from 1734.<\/div>\n
