The Aurora Series: A Modern Response to Violists' Needs
The Larsen Aurora viola string set is designed to offer a subtle balance of brilliance, warmth, and focus, with a fast response and refined playing sensations. In 3/4 size, it is especially suited for smaller instruments, without compromising sound sustain and register clarity.
For Which Violist and Styles?
These strings are well suited for advanced beginner to intermediate violists seeking a noticeable quality upgrade, as well as musicians wanting a consistent set for classical, ensemble music, and contemporary repertoire. The medium tension facilitates ease of sound production and control while remaining versatile.
Sound Characteristics
The steel A string provides clarity, good definition, and stable intonation, useful for exposed passages. The D, G, and C nylon-core strings promote a more flexible feel and a naturally warm tone. On the C string, the tungsten winding (over silver) contributes to a focused low register, with solid response and effective projection.
