Does anyone know what the name of this violist is?

[arpegina]

Jean Paul Minali Bella

[worldviolist]

Just to clear some things up: this is a viola that happens to have 5 strings on it (yes, they do exist); some violas have a strange upper bout to make it more resonant. As for the tone, it's odd only because it's muted with a rather heavy mute. There is nothing at all strange about this man's viola or how it sounds.

That is an interesting looking viola...
