Win a New Pirastro EVAH PIRAZZI® NEO Violin String Set

Made in collaboration with Janine Jansen, the new set offers the instrument greater brilliance and focus

 

In collaboration with our great friends at Pirastro, The Violin Channel is this week giving away 5 brand new Pirastro EVAH PIRAZZI® NEO Violin String Sets.

 

The set was designed with support from the award-winning violinist Janine Jansen

Their collaboration has helped to develop violin strings that offer greater power and volume in its low frequencies, brilliance and focus across the entire sound spectrum, and a simple and direct response.

"I have played Pirastro strings since many years," Janine Jansen told The Violin Channel. "After a period of testing different options and explaining to Adrian Mueller, the Technical Director at Pirastro, what I was looking for in terms of sound projection and durability, I feel very excited about the end result. It was a fun and rewarding search together with the team at Pirastro."

Jansen’s input was pivotal to strings’ design — personal, intellectual, and artistic exchange from artists has long been important to the building of new strings for orchestral string instruments and has encouraged Pirastro to “explore new paths and discover new worlds of sounds.”

“Asking the musician what they are looking for always comes first when developing a new string set,” explained Pirastro Technical Director Adrian Müller. “The intensive collaboration with violinist Janine Jansen led us to implement a new manufacturing process.”

“Excellent malleable sound, big, powerful, centered, noble and luminous,” Jansen said of Evah Pirazzi Neo. “The strings stay in tune incredibly quickly, are very easy to work with from the start and feel extremely comfortable under the fingers … they are in perfect resonance with my violin and give an optimal balance between stability, flexibility, power, warmth, and core.”

Delivered in a new recyclable cardboard set packaging, the EVAH PIRAZZI® NEO violin string set is available in medium tension including E-string Goldsteel with a removable ball end in gauge 26.8; A-string Synthetic/Aluminum; D-string Synthetic/Silver; and G-string Synthetic/Silver.
