The Allegro Range: GEWA's Commitment to Viola Excellence
With the Allegro range, GEWA emphasizes a structured manufacturing approach designed to guarantee consistent quality from instrument to instrument. The organization of processes and precision machining contribute to controlled finishing, while the choice of European woods directly influences the instrument's tonal character. The result: an acoustic viola designed to provide a solid foundation, both in terms of playing comfort and reliability.
For Which Musician and Uses?
Thanks to its 382 mm size and quality components, this GEWA Allegro viola is particularly suited for students and intermediate players who want to upgrade to a solid wood instrument that is more expressive and responsive than a basic student model. It is well suited for the classical repertoire, conservatory work, chamber music, and orchestra playing, while remaining comfortable for more diverse styles (pop, film music) whenever a natural and nuanced acoustic sound is desired.
Sound Characteristics
The combination of a solid European spruce top and solid European maple back and ribs is a classic quartet setup, prized for its balance. Solid spruce promotes a clear attack and good sensitivity to bow variations, useful for working on dynamics and articulation. Solid maple adds structure to the sound, with strong projection and definition that helps the viola remain audible within an ensemble. The hand-applied natural amber brown varnish completes the package with a warm finish, noting that slight color variations may occur, as each instrument has its own character.
