Cello Stradivari Davidov Model
Short history about this special model: The “Davydov” or “Davidoff” cello was made in 1712 and was given to the famous cellist of that name in the year 1870 by a wealthy benefactor. The dimensions, form and character of craftsmanship are virtually identical to the “Duport” Strad. The varnish is a rich, warm orange-red color. Unfortunately, the appearance of the cello was somewhat marred during Davydov’s ownership, and it bears the marks of wear and careless usage.
After Davydov’s death, the cello was taken to Paris, where it was sold to a wealthy amateur, who sold it again in 1928 to Herbert N. Straus, an American business executive. When he died, his widow asked Rembert Wurlitzer to sell the instrument for her, in 1964.
It was then that the “Davydov” was purchased (for $90,000) for Jacqueline du Pre by her godmother, Ismena Holland, who had previously purchased for her an early model Strad, as well as a Guarnerius, a Ruggieri and a Techler of 1696. Du Pre’s teacher, William Pleeth was with her when she tried out the cello and recommended it to her as “one of the really great instruments of the world.” Du Pre’s recordings from 1965 to 1968 were all made on the “Davydov.”
She eventually became unhappy with the sound of the cello, which was sensitive to climatic changes, and reacted badly to aggressive handling, which was her style of playing. Yo-Yo Ma came into possession of the cello after Jackie’s death, and remarked, “Jackie’s unbridled dark qualities went against the “Davydov.” You have to coax the instrument. The more you attack it, the less it returns.” (Quoted by Elizabeth Wilson in her biography of Jacqueline du Pre)

This is a Gabrielli 1762 cello model made in 2018 by Emanuele with old wood harvested from Val di Fiemme region over 20 years ago. It is such a fine cello with one single wood piece for the back.
