Barak Norman (1651–1724) was an English string instrument maker. He was an important and prolific English maker of viols, violins & 'cellos. He was apprenticed in the Guild of Weavers in 1668, and probably received instruction from Richard Meares. His viols are the epitome of the elegant English style of the period. Early specimens are highly arched but later ones have medium arching and elaborate double purfling. The earliest recorded label naming Barak Norman as maker (on a viol) is dated 1690.
