Tarantino
Does anybody know the dates of birth/death for Giuseppe and Marino Tarantino? Can't find anything online. Thanks.

I think the work period is early 20th century thru mid 20th. I would suggest you ask Sergio Scaramelli in Italy. He might know. Because they mainly made just D.basses, they were never listed in any of the books on Violin makers in any detail. The Jalovec book of makers just has Giuseppe as Naples 20th century. His label mentions in Italian Contrabasses and repairs.

Marino is the son I think so add 20 years or so from the start but I don't know of any basses dating after '62 if that late.

You know, I saw that page and blasted right by. Good sleuthing. I also found a reference to a bass by Marino from 1978: http://annunci.ebay.it/annunci/strum...ntino/24132311 In addition, I found a label that says "Marino Tarantino e figli", so I wonder if there are still Tarantinos in the trade in Italy. |
