Edgar E. Russ was born in Austria in 1966.
At a very young age he developed a strong passion for making musical instruments. In 1984 he moved to Italy to attend the "Antonio Stradivari" Violinmaking School of Cremona. Four years under Riccardo Bergonzi's supervision, he graduated in 1989. To complete his professional training and his continual research in the field of acoustics, he decided to travel to the United States where he worked in the workshop of Gregg T. Alf and Joseph Curtin in Ann Arbor Michigan to further his knowledge beyond the traditional Cremonese method of violinmaking. In 1990 he opened his first workshop in via Plasio 7.
From 1995 to middle of 2004 Edgar worked together with Giorgio Grisales in Via Sicardo 2a. Their workshop has been a very important and well known meeting point for players, violinmakers and connoisseurs. Since September 2004 Edgar opened a new workshop in Via Mauro Macchi 2a.

His instruments are played by world known musicians, professors and teachers in prestigious orchestras, chamber music groups and quartets, and are used frequently by soloists in CD recordings. But Edgar continues to increase his skill working in the workshop of Carl Becker & Sons from Chicago as well as in the workshop of Machold Rare Violins in New York City and participates at varnish and set up seminars. Therefore he is well known for his set up and sound adjustments.

He participates annually in various important music expositions and exhibitions including Tokyo Music Fair, Mondomusica Cremona, Cremona exhibitions in USA, Frankfurter Musikmesse and Musikmesse Shanghai.
Edgar is the co-author of a book in German language entitled "Die Violine-Instrument, Geschichte, Bau" written together with Thomas Oberhauser in 1994.
His increasing reputation on craftsmanship and remarkable acoustic qualities has boasted the high demand among private collectors and musicians from all over the world.

He is member of:
*Violin Society of America (VSA)
*Consorzio di Liutai & Archettai "Antonio Stradivari" Cremona
*Associazione Liutai Italiani (ALI).
