Introducing Hidersine Andante Strings: Elevating performance across Violin, Viola, and Cello

The J. Thibouville-Lamy Barnabetti 4/4 violin is a beautiful master-built instrument honouring its stunning predecessor originally built in 1910 in J.T.L’s workshops in Mirecourt - the birthplace of French violin making.

We have developed our latest violin strings with lots of passion and patience. And the outcome is even better than we dreamed of: DYNAMO for violin.

Perfect for a wide range of players, from beginners seeking a feature-packed piano to help improve and expand their learning experience, to professional pianists who require a versatile digital piano that combines authentic sounds with a natural and responsive touch.

Blended from a unique formulation to ensure the finest performance and developed to increase your level of instrumental control, each rosin is encased in a solid Maplewood holder etched with the historic W.E.Hill & Sons logo, and presented in a colour-matched drawstring bag.

Following the release of DOMINANT PRO for violin in February 2021, the Vienna-based string brand have now extended the popular series to violists and cellists with their range of 4/4 sized DOMINANT PRO sets and single strings.

Developed and manufactured in the UK and newly formulated specifically to help clean, care for and conserve your fine stringed instruments and bows, W.E.Hill & Sons’ Conservation Wax is made using a unique blend of microcrystalline waxes and citrus oils.

The supple response of a fine Pernambuco bow paired with the lively articulation of our performance line gives the CodaBow Escent a modern energy unprecedented in bow making.

Anton Sorokow, violinist, first concertmaster of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and professor at the University of Music and Performing Art Vienna, playing on DOMINANT PRO and why he thinks these strings are a revolutionary advancement in the string repertoire.
