Description

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.

Perfect to play in a modern violin.

Pros: Evah Pirazzi strings have several good qualities. Their medium tension suits most violins. They "bed in" quickly and stay tuned without any stretching. They give a clear resonance in the upper register and a nice deep mellow sound at the lower end, They suit my Paesold 807 violin to a tee. It was made in 1997 so it is still being played in. The Evah Pirazzi string are perfect for the job.

Cons: None

The Best - IMO

Pros: Luckily I was advised to try Evah's many years ago and have stuck with them. Loud, clear and vibrant they're great for cutting through in performance and bring the best out of any fiddle (and I've had a few, currently on a 1930 German) and just can't be beaten. You get what you pay for, and these deliver! So no grumbles about cost from me.

Cons: None
