Liebenzeller Gold is a particularly well balanced rosin. The tone becomes round, full, and warm, at the same time brilliantly clear and transparent. It is very flexible and best suited to extract different timbres from the instrument. The Gold is graded from I (the hardest) to IV (the softest)
Gold I for violin: harder, excellent for solo playing, offers superior clarity
Gold II for violin/viola: slightly softer, nice balance of warmth and projection
Gold III for viola/cello: softer, more subtle, able to smooth out any harsh instrument qualities
Gold IV for cello: soft, provides excellent feel, enhances even the slightest nuance
Gold V H for double bass: soft, uniquely balanced, more mellow
Designed to provide a more blended sound for ensemble playing, without sacrificing clarity or articulation.
