Cellos that sing
Cello rentals in Berlin — soulful old cellos and children's cellos in every size
♫ Personal advice
As a professional cellist, I'm happy to help you choose your cello and play the instruments for you so you can hear how each one sounds.
♫ Character and history
Each of my cellos has its own character and its own special sound — and there's a children's cello in every size, too.
♫ Personal delivery
On request, I'll personally deliver your cello to your home — anywhere in Berlin, plus Potsdam and the surrounding area. Just let me know where to come.
On my musical journey
... I've had the privilege of playing on many wonderful stages — five years with the Konzerthausorchester Berlin under Christoph Eschenbach, plus engagements with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra and the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin.
Out of my deep love for old instruments, I started Cello Hoffmann in 2018. Together, we'll find the right cello for you.
„I know each of my cellos personally"
Whether you're just starting your „cello journey" or returning to it after years away — a soulful cello is always a joy.

Sustainable
... cellos can be, too. When I look inside an old instrument, I see history — a cello that's already had a life and is now coming into new hands.
My old cellos are restored by handpicked luthiers in Berlin and find their place with my renters.
Instead of factory-made new instruments, you get a cello with a story. And the next chapter of this cello's life begins with you.
In Berlin and the surrounding area
... I'll bring your cello to you. Whether in Mitte, Charlottenburg, Pankow or Kreuzberg — whether in Potsdam, Kleinmachnow or further out: you'll get your instrument straight from me, hand-picked and ready to play. With several to choose from, if you'd like.
Renting a cello with me means: no shipping box, no anonymous selection. Instead, a cello you've actually met before you decide.
I'd love to hear from you!
Just call or write — and we'll find the right cello for you, together.
