Hidersine 1VA Viola Rosin – Light Amber, Large Cake

The Hidersine 1VA Viola Rosin is specially formulated for viola players, providing the ideal balance of grip, response, and freedom under the bow.

Unlike many general-purpose rosins traditionally shared between violin and viola, the 1VA was developed specifically around the viola’s lower register and thicker string profile. Its slightly softer formulation provides excellent traction without feeling overly sticky, helping produce the rich, vocal character players expect from a well-set-up viola.

With a Grip Profile Rating of 5, Hidersine 1VA sits between traditional light violin rosins and softer dark rosins. The result is controlled bow response, clean articulation, and dependable grip while still allowing the bow to move freely across the strings.

Suitable for everyone from developing students to professional players, this large 30-gram cake is made in England using Hidersine’s traditional artisanal process of hand-mixing and hand-pouring.
