Why choose Larsen Soloist for Cello


 

Larsen Cello Soloist

Larsen Soloist Cello strings are a refined addition to the Original range, designed to meet the demands of solo performers. Built with solid steel cores, each string in the Soloist range is tailored for enhanced projection and tonal depth, ensuring clarity and volume in even the highest harmonics. The A and D strings are wound with precision stainless steel flat wire, providing a focused and warm tone that supports expressive playing in the upper register. The G string, wound with tungsten, delivers powerful resonance and depth, adding strength to the lower register

Available in Soft, Medium and Strong tensions for the A and D strings and in Medium and Strong variants for the G string, the Soloist range allows cellists to choose the optimal tension for their instrument and style. The slightly increased tension compared to the Original range adds a boost in projection, bringing a powerful, embracing warmth to your sound.

Known for easy response and rapid tuning stability, Larsen Soloist Cello strings offer a professional-grade experience, combining durability with the renowned Larsen tonal quality. Ideal for solo performers who need both presence and precision, these strings bring out the full potential of your cello, from the finest nuances to powerful projection.

In your own words…

“I can’t tell you how much better my old instrument sounds. The A string is ringing like a great tenor, the middle two are full of warm colours and the bass is fabulous.”

Rohan de Korte – Melbourne Symphony Orchestra

“After using the same combination of strings on my instrument (1849 Charles Boullangier) for a few years, it was with utter delight that I discovered a new degree of responsiveness, warmth and even tone with this new combination of Larsen Strings.”

Michelle Wood – Melbourne Symphony Orchestra
