Description

A Premium rosin made by Cremona in America. This rosin provides a powerful, yet sensitive sound for the soloist. It enables maximized projection and extra clear bow articulation.

From spring 2020, Cremona in America replaced the name ANDREA with CECILIA. There is no change in the rosin formulas whatsoever.

Please note this rosin is now rebranded as Cecilia but is otherwise unchanged in its formulation.

Second Order.

Pros: My second order for this as I am standardizing on Andrea for synthetic strings.

Cons: No cons.

Other: I like the plastic case but the instrument would be better protected with an additional cloth bag.

Prefer with darker sounding cello.

Pros: Nice sturdy plastic case. Easy to open and close. Easy to apply.

Cons: Size is a bit small for the price.

Other: Works well with my darker sounding cello with (Larsen/Spirocore strings), also used on another brighter cello (Jargar/Spirocore strings) didn't like it as much, overall good rosin.

By far the rosin I have ever used.

Pros: Andrea rosin is wonderful. I shall never want to use any other. My bow now clings to the strings and yet isn't sticky in any way. It is also more responsive and allows greater freedom.

Cons: The fact that my previous Andrea rosin, which had been a present from a friend, smashed into many pieces when I dropped it on the floor.

Addictive?

Pros: Clearness of attack.

Cons: None

Other: I've never been a fan of rosin as such, perhaps once a week, but with this rosin I have found that I want to use it.

best-of-the-best rosin

Pros: Studies show it is the best rosin. If it helps my 7-year-old son in his practice and audition at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, it will be worth it. We also purchased Dominant standard ½ strings. I would recommend The String Zone and will use them again.

Cons: None

Ticks all the boxes.

Pros: Excellent rosin;easy to apply. Possibly even less scratch in altissismo than its obvious competitor, but the difference, if any, is miniscule. It does not measure louder than other rosins

Cons: None.

Other: Packaging is strong and compact eliminating the usual cloth. The mini size is ample. These small advantages probably make this the overall best rosin in my experience.
