A and D strings
After years of research, Pirastro has found a specific material component for producing these inspiring warm and rich sounding cello strings. In combination with a newly designed spinning technology, they represent a new generation of PIRASTRO steel strings. They offer a remarkably full-bodied and round sound, with a complex overtone spectrum.

G and C strings
Over the past years cello steel core strings have more and more replaced gut core strings. The reasons are obvious: tuning stability, quick response and easy handling. However, these advantages are gained at the expense of beauty of sound, sonority and complexity of sound. For the first time, we have succeeded to develop a string that offers a great combination of playability and easy response up to the upper register with the sound beauty of gut core strings.
The lower string tension allows the instrument to open up and the upper register can vibrate easily and freely. In addition, the tuning stability and playing-in-time has been significantly improved in comparison to traditional gut core strings. The Passione G and C strings have a brilliant and powerful sound with excellent projection. At the same time their tone can be warm, round and complex. The diversity of sounds is ravishing. Passione strings offer a startling flexibility and the diameter is small allowing the string to respond quickly. Both strings come with a ball end in order to facilitate the installation.
