Thomastik and Jargar Strings are pleased to invite you to attend a dedicated String Clinic on Thursday, 19th March 2026 at 2:00 PM at Stringers of London. This event offers a professional platform for advancing your understanding of string selection and performance.

The clinic will feature:
1. Expert guidance from Thomastik-Infeld and Jargar Strings specialists, complemented by experienced professional string educators
2. An in-depth analysis of how string materials, construction, and tension influence tone, projection, and tactile feel
3. Practical advice on selecting appropriate strings, addressing issues such as corrosion, tuning stability, and wolf tones
4. Hands-on opportunities to experience leading string sets, including Dominant, Peter Infeld, and Infeld Red/Blue
5. An interactive Q&A session tailored to your repertoire and performance requirements

Following the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to trial various strings on their own instruments with support from Thomastik and Jargar staff. This trial period operates on a first-come, first-served basis, and spaces are limited.

Join us for an enriching afternoon designed to:
- Enhance tonal awareness and performance consistency
- Build confidence in selecting the optimal strings for each instrument
- Deepen technical understanding to support long-term artistic growth
- Provide valuable insights into orchestral and instrumental performance

We look forward to welcoming you to this informative and inspiring event.
