Virtuoso for Violin
By Larsen Strings
“I finally put your strings on my violin after one rehearsal with an orchestra last week. After the next rehearsal, some people from the orchestra came up to ask if I was playing on another violin, because the instrument sounded so much better!”
Anna Pogostkina

Why choose Larsen Virtuoso for Violin
Part of the Larsen Virtuoso Family for Violin and Viola
Larsen Virtuoso strings are the perfect choice for violinists seeking a harmonious blend of warmth, clarity, and rich tonal nuance. Designed for warm to neutral instruments, Virtuoso strings deliver exceptional sound quality with easy playability, offering two distinct tension options to suit a variety of playing styles:
Virtuoso Medium Tension
Virtuoso medium tension strings provide a richly nuanced, delicate sound that is warm, clear and transparent. They offer exceptional volume at low tension, making them a great replacement for gut strings, especially for players seeking a more effortless playing experience with low bow weight. These strings are ideal for musicians who prefer easy response and subtle sound modulation, making them particularly suited for chamber music or players looking for refined control.
Virtuoso Soloist Tension
For those seeking a more focused and powerful sound, Virtuoso soloist tension strings are the answer. Offering a warm, dark and transparent tone, these strings bring exceptional volume, punch and focus. With moderate to high tension and higher resistance to the bow, they deliver a more “soloistic” sound, perfect for players who need more intensity and projection in their performances. The soloist tension version is designed for violinists who require greater resistance under the bow and a more commanding sound presence.
Friedemann Eichhorn

Whether you choose the medium tension for its delicacy and ease or the soloist tension for its focused, powerful tone, Larsen Virtuoso strings provide a professional-grade sound with reliability and exceptional playability. Combining innovative synthetic cores with premium materials like pure silver, these strings offer durability and an exquisite tonal palette, setting a new standard for violin strings.
In your own words
“I have a beautiful violin, made by Vissenaire in France in 1859. Since I play with the Larsen Virtuoso strings, my violin sounds even better. With brilliancy and a very clear sound. They make my violin sound great, thanks to Larsen.”
“Very good strings, my favourite is definitely Virtuoso. Soft and nice sound.”
“Brilliant strings. I have played fiddle for 21 years and tried lots of string types. These Larsen strings give unparalleled sound playability and durability compared to any other string I have played. Excellent first class product.”
“Larsen Virtuoso strings are clear and loud but with a feel and playability of a warm synthetic string. If your instrument is relatively dark sounding but cannot handle a lot of tension these are the perfect strings for you.”
“Excellent products and fantastic people. That is what comes to my mind first when I think “Larsen Strings”. I give 5 stars just because cannot give more”
“Invited to come and visit the LARSEN STRINGS factory in Sonderborg, I really appreciate the professional and human behaviour of the staff. They just want to produce the best strings! Their enthusiasm is contagious.”
