The market leader in professional grade orchestral strings. Set of 4 in medium tension. Choice of steel or gold plated E. Intense and brilliant sound with the widest possible dynamic range. These strings are best suited to advanced student and professional players and work best on high quality instruments.
Available in three tensions, Evah Pirazzi strings have a core made from a modern synthetic multifilament fibre which contributes to a very intensive and powerful sound. Ideally suited to orchestral and solo playing.
The strings have outstanding playability and exceptional response at any of the dynamic levels, a complex sound, rich with overtones based on a brilliant core sound and enormous projection.
Expressive, with great nuances and enormous dynamic range combined with outstanding tuning stability. These strings are absolutely insensitive to variations in temperature and humidity and are also suitable for electric violins or violins equipped with piezo-pickups
E-Goldsteel option: This string is more brilliant and powerful sound than the Silvery Steel E-string. This string has a different sound profile from Oliv and Obligato Goldsteel E-strings.
Below Pirastro explain the difference between the 3 Evah Pirazzi Offerings
Evah Pirazzi (2000): This set of strings is characterized by an overtone-rich, rather bright sound and a relatively strong background noise, which ensures carrying capacity, power and projection.
Evah Pirazzi Gold (2012): In contrast, these strings are designed to emphasize the warm, round and somewhat darker sound spectrum.
Evah Pirazzi Neo (2025): In this new development, the background noise of the original Evah Pirazzi is reduced while maintaining the strings’ full carrying capacity and power. Evah Pirazzi Neo is designed to combine effortless note and string transitions with easy response, tonal clarity and far-reaching projection.

Evah Pirazzi -- great strings for a price
Pros: I have tried every other string because these are expensive, but each violin is different and these strings, with the gold E, are by far the best.
Cons: This isn't really a con but a fact of life: they take a while to settle in and you must not ever stretch them for tuning, as they will lose their tuning -- not good for expensive strings!
Other: Sweet, fast, great for chamber music. I love them.

Good strings for the right fiddle
Pros: I like the tone on the gold plated E string
Cons: They take quite a while to settle - am still having to retune all the time after three days. They don't really suit my Wolf Brothers violin, but I have swapped them onto a contemporary hand made violin, and they are just fine.
