Pirastro Tonica Viola String Set - Full Size

• Tonica strings have a core made from nylon.

• They produce a lively well-rounded sound, perfectly balanced across all four strings.

• Responding instantly to any bowing style, they reward both player and listener with an open and direct sound.

• With substantially reduced background 'hiss', players can sustain a more even tone helping to achieve smoother string crossings.

• With a highly responsive left hand feel, Tonica strings remain very easy to play all the way up to the highest positions.

• Projection and brilliance have been upgraded.

• However, this excess does not mean that the Tonica has lost its warmth.

• Playing pianissimo has considerably improved.

• All bow strokes are possible resulting in smooth crossings from one note to another.

• Easy right hand articulation and tone attack.

• Due to their medium string tension Tonica strings are suitable for all instruments.

• Insensitive to variations in temperature and humidity.
