Cello Pirastro Perpetual Strings Set

Pirastro Perpetual Cello String Set — Medium (A/D/G/C)
Assertive projection with the signature Pirastro warmth.

Overview

Pirastro’s Perpetual Medium set is voiced for a clear, brilliant top (A & D) and a stronger, more present fundamental on the G & C—ideal for modern players who want power that still sounds refined. The line is engineered for great dynamic range and minimal playing-in time, so you reach full colour and stability quickly.

Sound & Response

Expect a focused, articulate core that remains musical at every dynamic: A and D sing cleanly without metallic edge; G and C retain warmth while speaking with extra solidity, keeping low lines intelligible in bigger rooms. This set’s responsiveness turns small bow gestures into immediate sound—useful in both concerto and section work.

Playability

Installation to “stage-ready” is fast, and the strings settle with excellent tuning stability. The Medium gauge balances left-hand firmness with pliancy, supporting quick shifts, reliable high-position intonation, and crisp spiccato or sustained cantabile.
