Larsen Il Cannone Medium Violin Strings

The Larsen Il Cannone Violin Strings are new strings from Larsen designed to bring the best out of your violin. Noble and powerful. A biting tone with real punch. Highly colourful with many intricate harmonics. Clear. Open. Brilliant. A very fast and easy response especially in spicatto.

New from Larsen Strings, The Il Cannone celebrates Paganini's legacy with what we believe to be a truly revolutionary sound. In the design and development process here at Larsen, we always aim to produce the exceptional, but it is only during the testing and trial process with hands-on musicians that we can truly know for certain. And we would seem to have succeeded. The feedback from musicians has confirmed that playability and feel on the fingerboard is excellent with a good resistance to the bow.
