Leatherwood Crisp Viola Rosin

CRISP:

A decisive attack, firm traction and crisp sautille; this recipe creates an undeniably forthright sound through a glassier texture.

The crisp blend often 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.

Here's what our clients think:

“A big sound compared to other rosins…more dramatic…that’s your Carmen fantasy rosin!”

"It's giving my violin more sound. Quite attacky, plenty of crispness, very good grip!” 

“It grips the string better! I didn’t have to have so much control over the bow” 

“It has more of a glassy texture, a gutsy sound. There's more control with this one”

“It has a very different connection to the string than the usual rosin. Velvety, gliding, but clearly connecting. It’s smooth across string, there's no feeling of 'pot holes' or grittiness.” – violist

“The best so far…makes it way easier to play brightly”
