To truly love music is to also understand the instrument—because every instrument contains a world of resonance, like a concert hall hidden within.
But what secrets lie within a handcrafted cello? Every step of the luthier's process is more than technical skill—it's an art form, a journey of aesthetics, precision, and deep craftsmanship. What essential techniques are involved in building a cello? At TWICF, we specially invited renowned luthier duo Chi-ling Chen and Emilio Kusi Crabbé—a husband-and-wife team brought together by their shared passion for instrument making.
Winners of multiple prestigious awards at the VSA International Violin Making Competition (USA), one of the most important competitions in the world, they will share their insights into the culture of luthiery, the aesthetics of handcrafted string instruments, and the practical craft of instrument making. Participants will also learn how to evaluate a high-quality handmade cello and gain a deeper appreciation for the art behind the instrument.

In 2010, Chen began her violin-making studies at Newark School of Violin Making in the UK. During her studies, she interned at Ealing Strings in London. After graduating in 2013, she remained in Europe to continue her craft, including bow-making training under Richard Salan in 2015. She returned to Taiwan in 2019 and, in 2022, partnered with her husband Emilio Kusi Crabbé to compete at the VSA International Violin Making Competition, where they won multiple top honors: double gold in viola, gold in string quartet, silver in violin, and a special distinction in cello. Today, she co-runs the Emilio & Chiling Lutherie Workshop in Taiwan, where she also takes on the role of managing director.

From the age of 15 to 18, Emilio trained in the workshop of famed baroque luthier François Bodart. He graduated top of his class from Newark School of Violin Making in 2013 and spent the following six years working as a luthier in Paris and Berlin with Stephan von Baehr. In 2021, he won silver in viola at the International Antonio Stradivari Violin Making Competition in Cremona. In 2022, he and Chi-ling Chen received multiple awards at the VSA Competition, including double gold in viola, gold in string quartet, silver in violin, and a special distinction in cello. He now lives in Taiwan and co-manages the Emilio & Chiling Lutherie Workshop as a full-time luthier.
