Set value
Save $10, plus the matched response of a complete pack
Why buy as a set
Three reasons to take the whole pack.
Tonal coherence
The Virtuoso D, G and C are voiced together by Larsen for matched response. The Larsen Original A is the recommended pairing, giving even character across all four strings.
Better price per string
Buying as a set saves $10 versus the four individual strings purchased separately, and removes the friction of ordering them one at a time.
Concert-ready quickly
Allow 24 to 72 hours of normal playing for the strings to settle, then the set is ready for orchestral, chamber, and solo work.
About Larsen Virtuoso
Built for performance and presence.
Larsen Virtuoso strings are designed for advanced and professional players who demand strong projection, brilliant tone, and expressive range. The Medium voicing delivers bright, resonant tone with a balanced bow weight that suits players who need power without excessive string resistance.
The set is completed with a Larsen Original A string (ball end), which integrates naturally with the Virtuoso lower strings in terms of tension and tonal character.

Frequently asked
Larsen Virtuoso Medium viola set, in short.
What is the difference between the Medium and Soloist sets?
The Medium set uses Medium tension D and G Virtuoso strings for a balanced, comfortable feel with strong projection. The Soloist set uses Strong (Soloist) tension D and G for additional presence and authority, suited to soloists projecting over a full orchestra.
Why does this set include a Larsen Original A?
Larsen Virtuoso does not have its own A string. The Larsen Original A is the recommended pairing, integrating naturally with the Virtuoso lower strings in tension and tonal character.
How long do new strings take to settle?
Allow 24 to 72 hours of normal playing for pitch to stabilise. Retune gently in small increments during the settling period.
Are these strings authentic Larsen?
Yes. Symphonia stocks Larsen strings through the official supply chain. If a string is faulty on arrival or fails prematurely under normal use, contact us and we will arrange a remedy.
