Antonio Stradivari biography edits
Stradivari died in Cremona on 18 December 1737, aged 93, after roughly 75 years of crafting instruments (Stradivari, 1902).

Success came relatively early in Stradivari's career, which may have allowed him to use a more experimental approach to violin building (Hopfner, 2021). In fact, Stradivari's early career is marked by wide experimentation. ..

His violins are desired more than those of any other luthier except his contemporary, Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù, who commands a similar respect among violinists ("Stradivari," 2018).
