Show & CultureShow & CultureViolonzono, violonzello or violonzino? That is the question! Between the 16th and 17th centuries, there were at least twenty different names for this bowed string instrument that plays in the lower register: basso da brazzo, basso da viola, violoncino, violone, violonzello, etc. The term violoncelle does not appear before 1660. Anne-Catherine Bucher and Leonor Sá invite you to discover these fascinating instruments.
