Discover a new era of string performance: INSULA

“When developing the new Insula strings for violin we experimented with a pioneering synthetic core material. This high-tech synthetic core has enabled us to replicate the molecular flexibility of natural gut, while offering the power and stability of the best modern high-performance fibers.” says Pirastro’s Technical Director Adrian Müller.

The result is a very natural, overtone-rich vibrational response that fully unleashes the soul of your instrument with a warm, room-filling, and expressive tone which carries effortlessly even in large concert halls. The unique design of these strings welcomes the bow to sink into them to create what feels like a limitless depth of sound. Thanks to their special material properties, the play-in time of the Insula strings is reduced to a minimum. They maintain their tuning reliably even under fluctuating environmental conditions.

Augustin Hadelich, Pirastro Artist, has already performed with INSULA strings for some months. He is absolutely thrilled with this new development: “The new Insula strings are great! They settle in quickly, the sound is warm, beautiful and resonant, and always responsive!”

INSULA strings for violin are a great choice for professional orchestra musicians, chamber musicians, soloists, and enthusiastic amateurs.
