Maple Leaf Strings Émile Sauret Intermediate Viola with Case

The Maple Leaf Strings Émile Sauret Viola captures the elegance, craftsmanship, and tonal brilliance inspired by the artistry of the celebrated 19th-century virtuoso, Émile Sauret. Meticulously hand-carved from highly figured Grade AAA spruce and flamed curly maple, each tonewood is aged 4–5 years to achieve superior resonance and long-term stability. The viola is finished with a professional spirit and oil mixed varnish, lightly antiqued and shaded with a defined edge color pattern that enhances its rich visual character and depth.

Delivering warm projection and refined tonal balance, this viola is designed to produce a powerful yet nuanced voice that develops further with playing time. The D’Addario Helicore strings provide quick response, stability, and a versatile tone suited to both orchestral and solo performance. Complemented by an Aubert No. 7 bridge and Wittner tailpiece with a single fine tuner, the Émile Sauret offers exceptional control, clarity, and ease of tuning.

Ideal for advancing students and dedicated performers, the Émile Sauret Viola stands out for its advanced Stradivarius graduation pattern, ensuring tonal evenness across all registers and professional-level sound refinement. It’s an outstanding choice for players seeking a sophisticated instrument that bridges artistry and precision.
