A "medium" choice: the reliable option in the range

The medium gauge is often preferred because it offers an excellent compromise between finger flexibility and power. Combined with a synthetic core on D, G, and C, this set aims for a consistent bow feel and a homogeneous tonal color, while maintaining a more direct A string thanks to its carbon steel core.

For which musician and styles?

This complete set is intended for advanced beginner to intermediate violists seeking a responsive and versatile string, suitable for both classical repertoire and ensembles (chamber music, orchestra) as well as more modern practices where stability and a clear attack are expected. The medium gauge facilitates string changes and reduces fatigue during extended sessions.

Sound characteristics

The synthetic core (D, G, C) generally provides a pleasant warmth, a more "singing" texture, and a gradual response, appreciated for legato and dynamic work. The chrome winding on the D string promotes clear articulation and good definition in the midrange, while the monel on G and C tends to enhance the density of the lower register with a warmer color. The A string with a carbon steel core offers a crisp attack, more immediate projection, and a reliable intonation reference.
