Historical instruments continue to have a large fan community. The joy
of discovering an old partita, or trying out an original instrument -
acts which are exciting for an musician - are often quite problematic
for string manufacturers.
The variations amongst baroque and
renaissance instruments are so wide that offering a standard string is
impossible. Therefore, Pirastro has developed a program which allows you
to choose a string that suits best with your instrument.
