Pirastro String Set
Passione,
modern gut, fully expressive.
A full, round, warm core sound with a complex overtone spectrum. The Passione set is a gut-core string built for players who want gut character with modern stability. Medium tension, E with ball end.
What's in the set
A complete four-string set.
One full set for 4/4 violin: silvery-steel E, and aluminium-, silver-, silver-wound gut-core A, D, and G. The lower three strings carry the warm, complex tonal colour of true gut.
Tonal character
Big, warm, and diverse.
The Passione set delivers a full, round, warm core sound with a complex overtone spectrum. The sound is big and powerful, yet capable of a fascinating diversity of colours.
As a modern gut string, it features a significantly reduced playing-in time and is immediately playable, offering far greater tuning stability than traditional gut strings.
String by string
How each voice contributes.
E String — a clear, brilliant, powerful response that complements the warm gut lower strings.
A String — an easy response and the warm, complex tonal colour of gut, with enhanced stability.
D String — a rich, powerful, highly nuanced tone.
G String — a big, powerful sound, grounding the set with a full, warm, projecting foundation.
