Larsen Tzigane®: Directly inspired by Ravel’s Tzigane and so delivering a richly smooth, saturated, sound with an overlay of sensual warmth. Rapidly played in and eminently playable with excellent focus and projection. A mellow accompaniment for the brighter to neutral sounding instrument.
The Larsen Tzigane® G, D and A strings are made using a multi-filament nylon core. The G and D strings are wound with precision rolled pure silver flat wire, the A string with aluminium. The E string is made of a unique carbon steel.
The strings are offered in medium and strong tensions, the strong tension strings offer the most volume and resistance to the bow. For very bright sounding violins, Tzigane® strong tension is the ideal choice.
PLEASE NOTE THAT LARSEN STRINGS HAVE DISCONTINUED THE SOFT VARIATION OF THEIR TZIGANE VIOLIN STRINGS. WE DO HAVE SOME STRINGS STILL IN STOCK, BUT ONCE SOLD OUT THEY WILL NOT BE REPLACED.
