The first School in Italy teaching the art of making stringed instruments was founded in 1926-1927, as a part of the “A. Boito” Academy of Music in Parma. Teachers were Gaetano Sgarabotto and Pietro Sgarabotto.

This School was replaced in 1933-1934 by the one in Cremona, under the direction of the same masters.

The School opened again in Parma in the seventies under the management of Maestro Renato Scrollavezza and it remained part of the Academy of Music until 1998.
