Pirastro Tonica New Formula * 1/4 - 1/8 * Violin Medium String Set Ball EndsSound Characteristics
· The Tonica® has a lively and round sound, which is open and direct
with little background noises. Hence, the Tonica is also suitable for studio takes.
· Projection and brilliance have been upgraded. However, this
excess does not mean that the Tonica® has lost its warmth.
· The set harmony is well-balanced.
· The response is easy and fast.
· Playing pianissimo has considerably improved.
· All bow strokes are possible resulting in smooth crossings from
one note to another.
· Easy right hand articulation and tone attack.
Standard Set:
· E Silvery Steel, A aluminum, D & G Sterling Silver. (All Ball Ends)
The harmony of the standard set is now better by exchanging the
steel/aluminum E with the Silvery Steel E 0.255 mm. The D string of the old Tonica® set was wound with aluminum, which results in
a very warm and soft sound, however at the expense of the set harmony and a certain lack of brilliance. Since the second half of
the 1990ies it is common for Pirastro standard string sets to have
a silver wound D string included. This allows a perfect set harmony with a brilliant sound that has good projection. This is the reason
why the standard sets now have the Silvery Steel E and the
Sterling Silver D included.
