Viola Strings

Q: What company makes the best viola mutes?
A: Smith & Wesson

Violas and viola players have been the butts of jokes practically since the instrument was invented. But remove a viola from a string quartet, or a viola section from a symphony orchestra, and you're suddenly missing the essential inner voice of those ensembles.

To help keep that alto voice strong and clear, we offer viola strings from top American and European companies like D'Addario, Larsen, Pirastro, Super-Sensitive, and Thomastik-Infeld. For your convenience, we have viola strings in sets and as single strings.

If you don't see your favorite viola strings, you can get them fast with a Special Order. In most cases, we’ll add the strings to our regular stock to make your next order even easier.

When you finish browsing viola strings, be sure to check out our sheet music for viola and accessories for bowed instruments.
