I loved the last 2 and will be getting them! Thank you!!!

3 Larsen. Significantly better than the D'Addario. The Pirastro sounded great but I preferred the warmth of the Larsen.

Larsen Tzigane ...these strings have an interesting sound.

Your playing is so beautiful,its hard to hear much difference, please tell us your opinion ?

Thank you for your review it helps! I was wondering about the larsen tzigane which are recommended by muesing too ( i am the lucky owner of a C3 bow hehe ). I have thomastik orchestra but i prefer warchal amber for the E string, and the A string 😊 I Will give the tzigane a try, definitely 😊

This review was excellent! You chose a nice wide variety of strings on the same violin, and I think, the same bow. I have an idea that I might prefer the Larsen Tzigane ones, not sure, my violin is toward the warm side.

Hi zlata, after a season with an orchestra, I changed my warchal amber strings to tzigane from larsen. They have on my violin a super soft warm mellow sound, better than the warchal ones. Just the E string is bad on my violin I just whistle , just like with the E thomastik orchestra 😳. Awful 🫣, even on my cheap violin i don't make the e string whistel like that. The more I take care of my bowing hand, the more it whistles. Luckily I had some warchal spare E strings, and no more whistle! That is what I can say about the tzigane larsen strings, witch otherwise sound beautiful (and recommended by Muesing)

Hi Zlata, what is the result on the G string, between the larsen and the pirazzi? For me, I liked the tzigane really. I think I would get a try on my violin too😊

I'm looking forward to what you think of the Larsens on your older violin 😊. Btw, how do you think the Kennedy Soloist violin compares to the Fiddlerman Soloist violin?

I'm 100% in agreement with your assessment. I just don't understand why Kennedy has a habit of putting preludes on even intermediate violins, and giving free cheap strings no one in their right mind will use, as there are so many great synthetic choices these days. On a better violin, you can't go wrong with EPG, but on intermediate instruments, LT's, DPA's, and even basic Dominants with a better E can be good choices depending. Thanks for the video Zlata.👏😘👨🏻

Thank you for this interesting review. I share your opinion on the tzigane and EP gold. The first two sounded more metallic, the other two much warmer and complexer sounding. Love the overtones of EP gold. I play on a warm bright ca 1770 french violin. Had EP green on them but found them difficult to play, too painful and too slippery, not much grip. Sound was wonderful at first but less so after few weeks. Also it was too dominant for my ensemble. For more comfort changed to obligato. But now miss the overtones and bit of power. Are in doubt what to put on next. Are the gold and green evah similar in feel on the left hand? Or gold more similar to obligato? And do you know if larsen and obligato differ a lot? Oblligato are also known for slow response. In terms of sound probably the gold have the same 'problem' of being too loud or is evah green more present than gold? Thank you for your insight.

I have an unrelated question🖐 Does anybody know if I can use a candle to stop my pegs from slipping ?? And if I don't have any rosin what else can I use for the meantime?? Thank you in advance for any idea to help me.... take care on be safe in all you do😊🙏

Zlata im looking for a Cheap violin not 59+!
