A Very Interesting Cello, Prague, circa 1750, attributed to Johann Ulrich Eberle

It is amazing to think that this cello is over sixty years older than the Georgian building in which it currently resides whilst waiting for its new owner. Made in about 1760 and attributed to Johann Ulrich Eberle of Prague, it was one of three concert cellos played by a German-born, London-based cellist and conductor whose family has now decided that it should be in the hands of a new player. It has been heard internationally throughout its long life, often accompanying the previous owner on stage for concerto solos, chamber recitals, and masterclasses. Due to some minor necessary conservation work, this instrument is being offered at a very competitive price and represents an opportunity for a player to obtain a professional-level, 18th century instrument at an excellent price.

A follower of the Stainer model of construction and one of the finest Prague school makers, Johann Ulrich Eberle was a pupil of Thomas Edlinger III prior to establishing his own workshop in 1727.
