Enjoyed the video and am looking forward to seeing the orchestra play in person one day!

Thank you: a joy to watch and hear. With my apologies that I don't speak your beautiful language in order to express my appreciation.

You ROCK

The A doesn't work well on my viola. I don't consider them all purpose string. They are thin and that definitely enhances overtones. The strings vibrate. They have improved over the years. I tried them when they first came out. People loved them but they had a BIG problem with unraveling. They corrected that. I wouldn't use them for certain repertoire though. As far as the C string goes, I don't think that they compare to Spirocore tungsten. I like a big atomic bomb on the C and Spirocore gives me that. I keep both in my case. Most use a Spirocore mittel but I use a stark. On my big viola it makes the other strings vibrate as well. Stark will not work on all instruments. The high tension can choke the sound on some instruments. Spirocore tungsten mittel is then a good option. The Larsen A and the Helicore A both have the same vibration quality but the Larsen is a bit darker giving the impression of a rounder sound that sings in the highest register instead of becoming nasal.

That's a very killer cover of "O Come All Ye Faithful". I learned that one on the 5 string Cello.

Yep, my favorite song, O Come all ye Faithful.

un des plus beaux chants de la Chrétienté

Thank you so much, you inspired me now i play the viola and I love it

O Come All Ye Faithful

I think this settles the debate on whether the 16" standard is large enough to accommodate the lower frequencies. Too bad anything over 16" is too much for most of us mere mortals.

This is what a Viola Should Sound Like

Wow that CodaBow Joule really does the trick.

Man you Rock

It makes bowing on the Viola just like Butter, because of how the weight is distributed

Absolutely beautiful!

Sounds so good! You have a great sound. That viola is cool-- the high *and* low registers are intense.

Amazing piece played stunningly

Great player.

Amazing.

codabow joule?

beautiful.... greeting from bali island. and i have codabow too😇

Beautiful ,tanks for show . I would like to hear more from this instrument.

Carbon fibre bows. I love them! A few years ago I went to Alberto Giordano's shop in Genoa,named my price and found that cheapest suited me best and made the best sound. It is a Carbondix ***. I now have three of them. My wooden bows are now redundant! Did you know that Paganini sometimes used a hollow steel bow made by Vuillaume?

Thank You for sharing your talent. Wonderful execution

That was just gorgeous. Your tone is so beautiful. Very inspiring

that was perfect

Like it!

Thank you for your opinion, i guess it's time to switch, Joule here we go! :)

Thank you Elgatosucio for the beautiful comment.

QUERIDO COLEGA ESTÁ FABULOSO, QUERIDO AMIGO ADOREI

lindissimo som e bela intrepretaçao

Yes, the GX is more expensive. It is an entirely different bow. I cannot really compare the two. I prefer the Joule.

Have you tried the Joule bow? For the viola, in my opinion, it rivals many great pernambuco bows. I tried it against a fine Ouchard bow and the sound quality was bigger and rounder. Like I said before, three violists in my orchestra have given up pernambuco for the Joule bow and last week a violinist also switched. For the price I do not know of a better bow. Sweet spiccato and a very easy smooth bow change with power all the way to the point even on a long down bow. Try a Joule!
