Theo Marks

Theo Marks is a violinmaker and musician based in Wakefield, Quebec. Born into a family of classical musicians, he has been surrounded by violins, violas and celli for as long as he can remember. Theo studied cello performance at the Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington, Indiana in 2000. In 2004 he received a Masters in Fine Art from the HKU in the Netherlands.
At this point, Theo turned his focus entirely upon violinmaking, attending the Scuola Internazionale di Liuteria under Renato Scrollavezza in Parma, Italy. In 2008, he opened up his own workshop in Amsterdam. Theo has attended the Oberlin Violin Makers Workshop since 2017. His instruments are played by professional musicians in both Europe and North America.
