A 2022 Innovation Focused on Performance
Launched as a 2022 innovation, the RONDO range for viola aims for a modern aesthetic: a dense and direct sound, designed to "cut through" easily in a hall while retaining warmth and a good dynamic reserve.
For Whom and Which Styles?
This set is intended for intermediate to advanced violists seeking a quick response and reliable projection. Particularly comfortable in classical repertoire, chamber music, and orchestral contexts, it is also suitable for contemporary styles requiring articulation and sustain.
The Sound
The A string (carbon steel, chrome wound) provides grip, attack precision, and stability. The D G C strings (synthetic core) offer a softer feel and a naturally warm tone. The windings (chrome, silver, tungsten/silver) contribute to density and projection, with a solid foundation in the lower register.
