Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold · Single Viola String
Evah Gold, warmth and
brilliant projection.
Individual A, D, G and C strings in Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold's synthetic-core construction. Full-bodied warmth with a radiant shimmer and powerful projection.
About Evah Pirazzi Gold
Warmth, brilliance, and expressive range.
Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold viola strings are the premium-tier variant within the Evah Pirazzi family. Where the standard Evah Pirazzi favours brightness and cut, the Gold version shifts the balance toward warmth while retaining the projection and dynamic range that made the Evah family popular with soloists and chamber musicians.
The result is a tone that is full-bodied and warm at its core, with a radiant shimmer that enhances overtone complexity without hardening the sound. Players who want expressive depth alongside reliable projection choose Evah Gold when they find the standard Evah too bright for their instrument or style.
The four strings
Each string, in detail.
Warm with radiant edge
The A carries warmth from the start while adding a brilliant upper edge that gives the top voice clarity and presence without hardness.
Rich, expressive middle
The D is rich and expressive, sitting well under lyrical bowing and supporting dynamic contrast from pp to ff without tonal instability.
Deep, singing lower voice
The G offers depth and resonance with a singing quality in the lower positions. It projects clearly in solo contexts while blending naturally in orchestral textures.
Powerful, resonant foundation
The C is broad and powerful, providing a resonant foundation that carries well in larger venues and maintains clarity through complex harmonics.
Playability
Expressive response, wide dynamic range.
Evah Pirazzi Gold strings respond quickly to bow speed changes and pressure variation, which is what gives them their expressive range. The feel under the bow is consistent across positions, and the tone holds together under both fortissimo demands and delicate pianissimo work.
They are well suited to solo and chamber music where a player needs to navigate a wide palette of colours, and equally capable in orchestral section playing when a warm, full tone is needed from the viola section.

Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold viola strings, in short.
How does Evah Pirazzi Gold differ from the standard Evah Pirazzi?
The standard Evah Pirazzi is brighter and more cutting. Evah Pirazzi Gold shifts toward warmth and tonal complexity while keeping the projection and dynamic range, making it better suited to instruments that are already bright or players who prefer a warmer palette.
What size viola do these fit?
These strings are sized for 4/4 viola, the standard full-size instrument.
How long do Evah Pirazzi Gold strings last?
Under regular playing the tone stays consistent for several months. Replace when the sound becomes dull or intonation in the upper positions starts to go false. Wipe rosin off after each session to extend lifespan.
How long do new strings take to settle?
Allow 24 to 48 hours of normal playing for pitch to stabilise. Retune gently in small increments during the settling period.
Are these strings authentic Pirastro?
Yes. Symphonia stocks Pirastro 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.
Need help choosing?
We can match the string to the instrument.
