Announcement

Cozio Redevelopment Update

April 2013 A new Cozio website is being developed behind the scenes and is due to launch in the summer. It will improve access to Cozio’s instrument archive and provide a wider range of content, including regular features on important instruments and bows in the archive. The archive itself is undergoing an extensive clean-up operation and is being merged with Tarisio’s own records and high-quality photographs to offer users a more accurate and much broader spectrum of instruments and bows. We would be delighted to hear your comments and suggestions for the new site.
