Virtuoso for Viola
‘A-string: Just as wonderful as always! Sounds warm and beautiful, at the same time, sound projection is very clear as well!’
Hung-Wei Huang
Principal Viola
‘A golden, open and clear tone with a nice balance of warmth and brilliance.’
Virtuoso® Viola. If something works then why change it?
Since its original launch back in 1995, our Original A has become almost the default choice for violists. Offering excellent projection with a broad spectrum of sound colours combined with a long lasting and consistent performance.With the development of our new Virtuoso Viola strings the focus has been upon creating a new offering for viola D, G and C, built upon the firm foundations of our tried and trusted A.
‘Finding a balance of qualities to complement and mutually enhance something old with something new.’
String Details
The Original Viola A string is based upon a solid steel core, wound with precision rolled stainless steel flat wire.
The Virtuoso Viola D, G and C strings build upon a synthetic multi-filament core and are wound with pure silver.
Now Also Available in a Longer Scale. Virtuoso Medium Viola in D, G and C are now offered in a longer scale for larger instruments with a longer free vibrating length. Our Original Viola A already accommodates the longer scale.

“Larsen Virtuoso strings are very responsive and colourful, somehow inviting many colour changes and solid intonation. I am very pleased to recommend these strings to any aspiring string player.”
