Angelika Thomas with viola da gamba

For many years Angelika Thomas has had exclusive use of this bass viola da gamba by John Pringle. Although Dr. Thomas has a flourishing practice as a medical doctor, she has nevertheless found time for studying viola da gamba at the Conservatory in Winterthur. In fact, she sometimes finds the time to perform in concerts with the Orpheon Consort, as in this case, where she opted for the Michael Albanus viola da gamba!
