The new Perpetual Cadenza violin set is characterized by its warm and very deep sound with a great wealth of colors and noticeably easy to play. In addition, these strings inspire the player with their brilliant, clear, and powerful sound as well as with their optimal response without resistance. The left hand feel is very light and soft due to its lower string tension. Shifting positions and portamenti can be played with noticeably less finger pressure. The overtones are rich and enable a wide range of color nuances while allowing the violin to resonate very freely. Enticing playability Vast tone volume Clearly focused sound projection Exuberant luster Optimal response From Pirastro: One string will never satisfy every player, individual tastes and requirements are simply too diverse. For this reason we enjoy developing and producing a broad and varied range of strings, inspired by the needs and wishes of individual musicians worldwide. Thanks to innovative materials and adopting new, carefully matched production methods, the development of Pirastro Perpetual resulted in a string set with a character not yet found in our product family. Within our range of violin strings, Pirastro Perpetual provides the largest sound volume and carrying power combined with a precisely focused sound projection. The clarity of its sound, however, does not diminish the abundance of colors Perpetual offers. Its vibrant tone attack and optimal string response seamlessly complement Perpetual's sound qualities from extreme fortissimo to the most sensitive whisper. The Perpetual violin strings react in an ideal way to the finest nuances in bow speed and pressure; this enables the musician to play with an extreme range of dynamics and expression. The innovative core material allows a comfortable smoothness during legato, shifting, string crossings, double stops and chords. The extended reverberation of the Perpetual brings forth an exuberant luster. Although during the first 24 hours Pirastro Perpetual Cadenza strings develop towards an even smoother sound, extreme tuning stability is reached immediately after stringing the instrument.  Like the Perpetual E, the steel E of the Perpetual Cadenza comes with a removable ball and is compatible with all types of fine tuners.  This Set Includes: E- steel A-aluminum  D- and G-silver Tailpiece Options Perpetual A-, D- and G-strings have a ball-end. The E-string is available with a removable ball end. Sizes Available 4/4 only Tension Medium only
