What is the Geigen Camp?
The Geigen Camp accompanies the making of a commissioned violin. For the variant at the client's location, a workshop container is transported there. Boris Sudakov works on that client's instrument inside it for two or four weeks, with all materials and tools. Daily or every other day, as agreed, you can communicate directly with him for one to two hours and follow the creation of your violin.
Can I experience the Geigen Camp at your workshop?
From July 2027, the Geigen Camp is also planned at our workshop as an alternative. Depending on the package you choose, you can follow the making of your commissioned violin there for two or four weeks. Details are agreed individually.
What is required for a Camp package?
For every Camp package, a violin must first be commissioned under contract and the agreed deposit paid. The date and details of the Camp are then arranged.
