Arcus Bows
Arcus bows are light, agile, and lightning-fast.
Arcus Müsing Viola Bows
Musing carbon fiber viola bows are designed and manufactured by Bernd Musing, the founder and creative mind behind the innovative and highly acclaimed Arcus bows. Musing viola bows are valued for their ease of play and exceptional value, being sold at a price point significantly lower than the other Arcus lines. They are strong, yet extremely lightweight, and therefore offer the player both power and agility. And, they produce a rich, nuanced tone. The new L series bows are more brilliant in tone and, overall, produce a richer, more nuanced tone compared to the original C series Musing bows. Approx. 60 grams.
Manufacturer’s
More than two decades ago, the “modern” bow was developed in revolutionary Paris by a clockmaker who happened to be the son of a bowmaker: Francois Xavier Tourte. Back then metal wound strings, chinrests or shoulder rests did not exist, concert halls were small. The sound volume a viola had do produce was nowhere near what we need to deliver today.
By employing carbon fibers in a unique 3-dimensional woven hollow stick we can make sticks that are as strong as traditional cello bows and as light as traditional violin bows. The resonance quality of the sticks surpasses normal carbon bows and even most pernambuco bows. Their powerful and beautiful sound will not only enlighten your music, but is ideal for anyaudition, competition or important solo.
