Jose Catoira


return to award winners

Jose was awarded a work placement with Marc Soubeyran, where he spent three days setting up one of his violins under Marc's supervision.  He writes of the experience: 

"The work experience was absolutely wonderful and never thought I could change my point of view so much in only 3 days. Marc is such a talented maker and I should say that we got along really well and had a good time working together."

The photographs show Jose at work on the cello he has made as part of his third year coursework at Newark, and the preparation of a baroque fingerboard - baroque instruments are an area of work he's keen to pursue when he leaves college.
