Find Your Violin Worth Today
August RAU
Er lernte von 1880—1884 das Bogenmachen und setzte seine Studien noch als Gehilfe fleissig fort, so dass er bei Wilhelm Knopf in Dresden Aufnahme fand, wo er sich zu einem vollkommenen Künstler in seinem Fache ausbilden konnte. Im Jahre 1890 eröffnete Rau in Markneukirchen seine eigene Werkstatt. Da er zur Herstellung seiner Bögen nur das allerbeste Material verwendet, eine seltene Handfertigkeit besitzt und ein genauer Kenner der Tourte'schen Schule ist, verstand er es bald, sich in Musikerkreisen einen grossen Ruf zu verschaffen, und darf heute als der weitaus tüchtigste Bogenmacher Markneukirchens betrachtet werden. Auch seine Violoncellobogen sind sehr gelobt worden. Seine Bögen kommen jetzt den besten französischen gleich.
