Corelli Strings |
||
|
Made in France by Savarez, producer of high-quality strings for tennis rackets, Corelli Alliance strings use a Kevlar core rather than perlon. The sound is warm and dark, although not as warm and dark as the Obligato, for example. These strings have a small but devoted following. | |
|
Corelli Crystal strings have a tone that is warm and dark, with a fair amount of edge that keeps them from sounding too dull. When you take them out of the package, you will find them very stiff compared to other strings. They also feel thick under the finger, although they really are not thicker than any other string. | |
|
Dogal Strings |
||
|
Although Dogal has been making strings in Venice, Italy, for more than 50 years, they are not well known in this country in spite of their recent ad campaign. In fact, if you want to try them, be prepared for a long search (you can try contacting the company directly through the Web site www.dogalstrings.com) . When I first installed Dogal Synthetic Gut strings on my violin, I found them rather dull-sounding, with a sluggish response. After two days, they seemed to perk up. I would characterize the sound as slightly dark, with slower-than-average response. I think Dogal needs to improve the D string (silver winding instead of aluminum would help) because of the flat, sluggish sound. |

Pirastro Chorda strings
are made for early-music specialists with violins set up for
Baroque performance. The E, A, and D are plain gut, and the G is wrapped
with silver-plated copper wire. They are designed to be tuned to a
415 A. (A= 415 is one of many older—and lower—"standard"
pitches. The lower pitch makes for a more mellow sound. Modern pitch
in the U.S. is typically 440 hertz. In Europe the standard is sometime
higher—445 or 450—which gives the orchestras a more aggressive, brilliant
tone.)
|
|
|
Pirastro Eudoxa strings were the standard
string for many years. They have a dark, warm, and quite full sound.
The response is rather slow, and they can sound dull on some newer instruments.
Eudoxa strings work best on old violins, especially with a higher arching one.

Available in one gauge only.

Widely regarded as “the reference standard” Dominant strings, made with a highly flexible, multi-strand synthetic core, provide the tonal warmth and feel of a gut string while being impervious to changes in humidity. The sound is soft, clear with a stable intonation and they are rich in overtones. One of the world’s most popular strings! Thomastik-Infeld Dominants, the original synthetic-core strings, are still top sellers. The sound is brilliant and responsive, and these strings seem to work well with many different instruments. When they are first installed, they have a rather metallic and edgy sound that disappears with a few days of playing. The E strings don’t seem to match the quality of the other strings, and many players substitute a Pirastro Gold Label E, which is a good match. |
