"Good wishes for your excellent violins."
YEHUDI MENUHIN
"Great wishes and good luck."
ITZHAK PERLMAN
"Hristo Bravo! "Beautiful violins. It's very rare in new violins to have this kind of quality for the sound - the complexity of the sound you know? Different style, different timbre. It's incredible. It was an honor and a pleasure to play your two violins. They are beautiful."
GIL SHAHAM
"The accomplished violin maker, Hristo Tchechmedjiev, is one rare occurrence in the world of making all string instruments."
YONTSCHO BAYROV, PROFESSOR OF CELLO
CONSERVATORY OF VIENNA
To Hristo, congratulations on your fine violins. They have mellow qualities and are quite easy to play. A very gifted violin maker.
Best wishes.
GLENN DICTEROW, CONCERTMASTER

"All of his instruments have a brilliant and suave tone similar to fine old Italian instruments.
These instruments are equal to the very best being made today."
WARD FENLEY, PROFESSOR OF VIOLIN
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SACRAMENTO
"I could not believe my ears. The last violin you made has an incredible sound even surpassing most of the old Italian violins I have owned. It's a brilliant and silken sound together with carrying power, richness, and most of all it's beautiful singing quality makes it the kind of fiddle you don't want to quit playing on. It is pure pleasure. There are some excellent violin makers today and your artistry is right at the top and sets a standard that most have not attained."
LEROY PETERSON, ARTIST IN RESIDENCE AND PROFESSOR OF VIOLIN
PACIFIC UNION COLLEGE, ANGWIN, CALIFORNIA
"As a proud owner of a beautiful viola (and violin) it brings me great pleasure every time I play this fine instrument. It is not only great to look at but its tone is smooth, beautiful and resonant.
No question about it, as violin (string) maker, you are a first-class artist."
GEORGE WARGO, FORMER PRINCIPAL VIOLIST AND FIRST VIOLINIST WITH THE NATIONAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA,
WASHINGTON D.C.
To Mr. Hristo Tchechmedjiev with gratefulness and wishes for the best of luck with your violins.
DR. ANGEL VALCHINOV, SOLOIST, VIOLINIST, OWNER OF VIOLIN MADE BY HRISTO TCHECHMEDJIEV, 1998
"I think that Mr. Tchechmedjiev is a modern-day miracle worker, who is a genius from Providence with a talent and experience, all so rare in our present day!"
GANCHO GANEV, CONCERTMEISTER of the Philharmonics in Plovdiv and
Dresden, of RTL Symphony Orchestra in Luxembourg and Symphony Orchestra in St. Gallen, Switzerland.

"Maestro Hristo my violin baby is the best...."
KATHY SIERRA, SOLOIST, VIOLINIST WITH GOLDEN BOUGH, OWNER OF VIOLIN MADE BY HRISTO TCHECHMEDJIEV, 1992
Hristo, Many thanks, I love my violin
ANDY LAIRD, , VIOLINIST, OWNER OF VIOLIN MADE BY HRISTO TCHECHMEDJIEV, 1993
Dear Mr. Tchechmedjiev. It was a real pleasure playing your violin! It has a wonderful singing quality of the sound, depth and warmth in the low register. The quality of the sound in combination with the powerful tone of each string makes your violin more desirable to me than most of the famous old Italian instruments I have played. It also looks beautiful and very easy to play.
Congratulations with your success!
Sincerely, TODOR PELEV, PROFESSOR OF VIOLIN
CONCERTMASTER, REDLANDS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
"I'm very impressed with these instruments-violins and violas. They are responsive, even, powerful and at the same time have a sweetness and richness similar to my fine old Italian violin."
