- In this video I'm comparing two rosins by Pirastro: Evah Pirazzi Gold and Goldflex. The first is a soft rosin, the second a hard rosin. Is there a difference in tone? Let's find out!

For first time application, I suggest fine grade sandpaper or if you really don’t have that, very light scoring with a razor/sharp knife.
I noticed some pieces of rosin chipped off with the knife you used
I almost agreed with her when she said she hates warm weather since it was like 30° but then I realized she meant celsius and not farenheit.
Amazing the number of topics musicians have to master...
Haha, right! 😋✨
Whoa- please don't scratch the rosin. There's no need to do so as the new shiny surface rubs off after a few swipes. Scratching the rosin only makes the rosin more prone to shattering, especially in a cake rosin such as the Pirastro ones. It also increases the chance of snagging your bow hair on any unevenness or sharpness. Contrary to popular internet belief, it does not help "release" the rosin, a few swipes with the bow already does that.
I have orange Pirastro rosin. Used different types but never payed attention to the difference in sound. Now I will listen more carefully 🤔
The Tonica one? That one's orange. It's all very interesting! I'm still getting used to mine, some moments I have less grip than I'm used to, but other moments it sounds supernice.

Thanks for such a useful video.
Because of you I know, that there are 8 types of rosin and I defined, what rosin will be next one in my use.
Would love to share my music with you, as my thankfulness, if you like.
Kind regards…
