The shops are owned and operated by master maker Peter Yang.  In his more than 25 years of experience, Peter has had the privilege of working with the finest violins of Stradivarius, Guarneri Del Gesu, Nicolo Amati, Guadagnini, Bergonzi and other seventeenth century instruments.  He has serviced these instruments for Isaac Stern, Pincas Zukerman, Jimmy Lin, Harvey Shipparo, Shlomo Mintz, Joshua Bell, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Yo Yo Ma, and other prominent musicians.  

Peter has acquired on the job experience at some of the world's most renowned violin shops throughout Europe, the United Stated, and Asia, including Jacques Francais & Rene Morel of New York, Peter Benedek of Munich, and Bein & Fushi of Chicago.  

Because of the diversity of his training, Peter has not only become an expert in his field, he has also cultivated a network of resources which allows him to acquire fine and rare instruments from around the world.   
We offer the highest quality instruments which are carefully selected and setup, specifically for the musician’s individual needs.  

Peter’s skill in providing this custom setup offers the musician an instrument that is comfortable to play, which is essential to draw superior tone and projection.
We feel our greatest asset to the buyer is our commitment to provide this expertise and continuing support to maintain the instrument, therefore preserving its value.  

Our services include sales and commission of fine handmade violins, violas, cellos and bows, restoration, repairs rentals and appraisals.  

To provide the most personalized service, we ask that you call Peter Yang Violin Shop to play on yang violins, violas, cellos and bows to schedule and appointment with us.

Elevating professional standards of craftsmanship and ethical conduct 
on a national level



American Federation of Violin & Bow makers
Founded in 1980 to provide the musical community with a standard of work and expertise upon which it could depend. Now numbering over one hundred of the finest makers, dealers, and restorers in the United States and Canada, the Federation has strict requirements for membership. Aside from submitting an example of his or her work for review, a prospective member must have at least nine years of experience in the profession -- including six years of formal apprenticeship and training in all aspects of the making, repair, and restoration of fine instruments and bows.  The Federation is also involved in the conservation and sustainability of rare and exotic woods used in the production of fine handcrafted bows.

Code of Ethics
The conduct toward which members of the American Federation of Violin & Bow Makers, Inc. shall strive is outlined in the following general principles.

Professional Standards - A member of the Federation shall maintain universally high technical standards and strive constantly to improve his or her competence and the quality of his or her services. 
Objectivity and Integrity - A member of the Federation shall maintain his or her objectivity and integrity and be independent of those he or she serves. Objectivity refers to the ability of maintaining an impartial attitude to all matters under review. Integrity is an element of character which is fundamental to a client's reliance on a member of the Federation. While neither of these qualities is precisely measurable, the profession holds them up to members as essential through rules embodied in the Principles of Professional Conduct.
Responsibility to Clients - A member of the Federation will be fair and candid with his or her clients and serve them to the best of his or her ability. He or she must show professional concern for their best interests in complement with his or her responsibilities to the public.
Responsibility to colleagues - A member of the Federation shall conduct himself or herself in a manner which will encourage cooperation and good relations among members of the profession.
Other Responsibilities - A member of the Federation shall conduct himself or herself in a manner which will enhance the stature and respect of the profession and its ability to serve the musical community and the general public.
                                        


                                                                     













Undisclosed Teacher Commission


Excerpt from MNSOTA String Notes
The following is reprinted by permission from the Winter 2001/2002 Issue of String Notes.
In researching the article on Instrument Trials, the topic of Undisclosed Teacher Commissions came up. An Undisclosed Teacher Commission is a payment, often a percentage of the purchase price, that a shop makes to a teacher when the teacher's student buys an instrument. "Undisclosed" means that the student doesn't know during their instrument search that their teacher is going to get a cut.) 

The MNSOTA board has passed a resolution opposing undisclosed teacher commissions because we believe they are against the best interests of students. 

When a shop routinely gives a percentage commission to the teacher, that cost of doing business is built into the price the student pays. When commissions inflate the purchase price, students will find it difficult to recover their purchase price when they sell their instrument or trade up. We prefer that shops no offer commissions but instead offer the best possible prices. 

In making an instrument purchase, parents expect each shop to be proud of their work and have a "we're the best" attitude. Students usually need a knowledgeable, trusted guide who is not party to their transaction to help them choose. That guide is usually the teacher. If a teacher accepts a secret commission, they have a conflict of interest between their own self-interest in obtaining commissions and their duty to the student in giving advice. 

The trust built up between the teacher and student is powerful and should not be abused. If a student finds out about a secret commission after a purchase, their trust in teacher will be broken; the student and parent may wonder how honest the advice really was. Where the teacher is legitimately representing the shop, it should not be a secret. If the student knows that a commission is involved, they can decide if they want to find someone else outside the transaction to advise them. 

To be sure, teachers should be paid for the time and effort they put into advising students. We need to take lesson time to train students to audition an instrument or bow. We need to teacher students how to discriminate the differences in sound and feel, projection, tone color, playability. We need to help students develop their own preferences. When students are comparing instruments, many teacher schedule and charge for extra lessons devoted to that comparison. Some structure their lesson fees so that extra time for advising is already built in. In all these cases it is appropriate that the student receiving the advice is paying for the teacher's time. 

While the MNSOTA board strongly opposes undisclosed teacher commissions, board members had more wide ranging opinions on gifts from shops to teacher. (Some shops occasionally give gift certificates or thank you baskets or other token gifts to teachers.) As shops and teachers work together for the good of the students, it is always nice to have effort recognized and appreciated. Good will and good relations make all our jobs easier. It's always nice to say "thank you." If a shop wants to give an occasional nominal gift that does not affect the price of the instrument and does not create a conflict of interest for the teacher, the gift is not necessary, but most teachers appreciate it. If the gift appears to have the expectation of special favor or appears to be an attempt to influence a teacher's objectivity - that's not OK. Teachers who are uncomfortable receiving gifts if they happen to be offered can always give them away, possible to the student.
