The new Larsen Strings Il Cannone cello range has been hailed as a step
change in cello string development. Available in two variants, Direct
& Focusedand Warm & Broad, all eight strings are mutually
compatible and fully interchangeable. By design. Il Cannone for cello
gives you a toolbox of options to choose from to optimise your
individual sound. Built upon the powerful foundations of a rich and
expressive core sound, Il Cannone for cello offers you a rich palette of
set up combinations.
As a key element of the development
process we work with musicians, one on one, testing string prototypes.
The responses and insights gained directly influence the formulation of
new designs with the final phase being live performance playing the
final design over many months. World renowned cellists such as Sheku
Kanneh-Mason, Nicolas Altstaedt, Narek Hakhnazaryan and Jian Wang are
currently performing with Il Cannone for cello. During their own
personal workshops they found their ideal strings amongst the same
selection that is now available to you.A ready-made toolbox of string
options avoiding the expense and frustration of unreliable trial and
error. The cellist can modify and control the tone of his/her instrument
in a way that is easy to predict. The core sound can be blended with
any Il Cannone string combination(s) because all of the options are of a
similar moderate tension and engineered to complement one another.
