Abstract
This essay discusses the pivotal role the instrument (re-)construction process can play as an initiator for new knowledge, methods and cross-connections within the field of organological research. In order to illustrate this approach, a case study is presented in the form of a Ph.D. research project on the life, instruments and construction methods of the violin-maker Benoit Joseph Boussu (1703– 1773). This project comprises four distinct phases of research: a biographical study, study of surviving instruments, the creation of instrument replicas, and the application of these replicas in musical performances. For each phase, the employed approach, methodology and results are exemplified.
