About ARCUS

Most players who own an Arcus bow play it exclusively. The most important reason is probably that according to Arcus no conventional bows offer the same variability in sound and technique. An Arcus enhances the freedom of interpretation and allows to play with increased precision and clarity. The articulation is crisp and clear. Perfect intonation in the upper registers is also more easy to achieve due to the clear and transparent sound they draw. The sound of the lower strings comes out more melodic. Arpeggio and fast string crossings are easier to execute because the bows are lighter and perfectly balanced. Even col-legno doesn’t need to trouble you any further, as the stick’s surface is harder than the metal winding of the strings. Finally you can play at full power without damaging the stick or the bow hair.
