Versatile 6-stringed Renaissance Instrument

Cinesamples World Series: Viola da Gamba, recorded at the legendary MGM Scoring Scoring Stage at Sony Pictures Studios in Los Angeles. 

This unique Renaissance bowed string delivers a rich timbre suitable for a wide variety of film, TV, game, and media scoring.

The Viola da Gamba is a 6-stringed bowed and fretted instrument that first appeared in Spain in the mid to late 15th century and was most popular in the Renaissance and Baroque periods. We sampled a great combination of articulations and textures perfect for melodies and beds, characteristic of how this instrument sits well in a mix for scoring.

This instrument is strung with 6 strings that are tuned to (relative to Kontakt): D1, G1, C2, E2, A2, and D3.

Viols are fretted in a manner similar to early guitars or lutes, by means of movable wrapped-around and tied-on frets. The movable nature of the tied-on frets permits the viol player to make adjustments to the tempering of the instrument. On this particular instrument, the frets only extend 7 semi-tones on each string.
