A decisive attack, firm traction and crisp sautille; this recipe creates an undeniably forthright sound through a glassier texture.
The crisp blend works well with an instrument with lots of resonance but is a little ‘woolly’ in sound, offering it greater clarity and articulation. Crisp also assists bows or techniques that struggle to achieve a clear and articulate spiccato or sautille. Crisp can also assist small student or cheap instruments, by enhancing their sound to be brighter and sometimes louder; and beginning students find it easier to articulate with crisp.
They optimize brightness, clarity, warmth, and tonal richness, as well as the intensity of the bow attack. We can develop formulas tailored to specific playing situations or repertoires—such as solo performances, chamber music, or orchestral playing. Your custom-made rosin will generally last for 2 to 5 years with intensive use.
