- Q21998372 abstract "Benning Violins is a California-based luthier business, crafting, restoring and repairing violins, violas and cellos since its opening in 1950 as Studio City Music. In 1953, it moved to its current location on Ventura Boulevard. Learning the craft from his brother-in-law, Carl Becker Sr., Paul Toenniges worked in William Lewis & Son in Chicago, and later under Rudolf Wurlitzer, finally opening his first studio in Los Angeles. Crafting up to five instruments a year, they sell for approximately 30-42 thousand dollars.Nancy, one of his daughters, together with her husband, Hans Benning, took over the studio in 1968 after Paul's retirement. Nancy and Hans studied violin making at the Violinmaking School in Mittenwald. Eric Benning, Nancy and Hans' son currently runs the business, while his son Nathan also performs as a luthier.Notable musicians who bought Benning instruments include Paul Coletti, Sid Weiss, Victor Gaskin (used while recording Duke Ellington's 70th Birthday Concert) and Arnold Jacobs, while Hans Benning restored and maintained several of Jascha Heifetz's instruments during the latter part of his life. Benning Violins also maintained some of Nathaniel Ayers' violins.The Benning family has a music academy in Mexico named after them, the Benning Academia de Musica, to which they donate many instruments. They have visited the academy in Ensenada, Baja California about once a fortnight since 1978.".
