In September 1996 he moves to Cremona, native land of the
world-wide violinmaking, in order to learn the ancient art
of making stringed instruments and starts to attend the prestigious
school of violinmaking, the I.P.I.I.A.L. Antonio Stradivari.
In June 1999 he obtains the diploma of Violin maker MASTER,
under the supervision of Master Giorgio Cè, one of
the most successful violin makers in Cremona (he was the winner
of the 1976 First Three-Yearly of Cremona, in the division
of violins).
During the years of school his teachers were also: M. Tadioli,
M. Negroni, P. Pistoni, H. Lois., A. Voltini, C. Amighetti,
T. Matsushita, E. Slaviero for the restoration and the construction
of strings.
In September of the same year, he starts the training activity
in the workshop of Katharina Abbhul and Alessandro Krilovi,
where he learns new techniques of construction and painting
of stringed instruments with the strong presence of the classical
traditions of the Cremona violin making, that radically change
his way of looking at the violin making, and modify his way
to work. |

At the same time, in September 1999, he decides to enter the
Faculty of Musicology of the University of Pavia, in the detached
center of Cremona, where he can develop his knowledge of the
history of music and lute-making and increase his theoretical
musical training.
In the next 5 years Adriano dedicates himself to University,
passing with good marks most of the exams, and to his own
construction of stringed instruments, especially violins.
He associates and co-operates with several labs in Cremona
until September 2004, when he starts working in the lab of
Edgar Russ, one of the most important in Cremona.
In the workshop of Edgar Russ he largely dedicates himself
on painting, assembly and adjustment of instruments, taking
the most attention on this production stage.

sister Maria Spadoni, professional cellist of the Moscow Symphony
Orchestra of N. Ziva, and Master Edgar Russ, he dedicates
a lot of time to improve the acoustic level of his instruments.
