Gewa ALTO ALLEGRO-VA1 39,5 CM PREPARED FOR THE GAME PROFILED CASE CARBON BOW ALPHAYUE STRINGS

The Allegro Range: GEWA Precision Serving the String Quartet

With Allegro, GEWA relies on modern production dedicated to quartet instruments. The organization of processes and high-precision machining allow exemplary consistency from one instrument to another, while preserving the essentials: a selection of European woods serving musicality. The result is a reliable, well-finished acoustic viola designed to meet the expectations of musicians seeking seriousness and consistency.

For Which Musicians and Repertoires?

With its 395 mm size, this viola is aimed at violists looking for a comfortable and balanced format, ideal for progressing without struggling with the instrument. It is well suited for advanced beginner to intermediate players (and those returning after a break) who want a stable, in-tune acoustic viola that is expressive enough to work on dynamics and articulation. Versatile, it is suitable for classical repertoire (studies, sonatas, chamber music) as well as modern arrangements where a clear, responsive viola capable of holding its place in the ensemble is expected.

Sound

The solid European spruce top provides a precise attack and good bow sensitivity: the instrument responds quickly, facilitating bow stroke and dynamic work. The solid European maple back and ribs enhance projection and clarity in the mid-low register, with a structured sound and a typical viola timbre. This combination of solid woods also helps the instrument gain openness over time. Regarding setup, the Aubert Original bridge and Wittner tailpiece with fine tuners contribute to stable response and easier tuning, while the Thomastik-Infeld AlphaYue strings promote accessible playability and consistent sound production.
