    Testimonials

    I’ve tried many different shoulder pads in my career and had been a long time user of those pink ‘cosmetic sponges’….until I recently switched over to the ArcRest. I liked the cosmetic pads for their comfort, and the freedom of movement that they allowed. The ArcRest achieves both these things and more! I admit that I was skeptical at first about the claims that it would help an instruments’ sound, but after trying the ArcRest on several different violins, I am a believer. The ArcRest may be rel… Read more

    During my performing career I played both, with various shoulder rests and without. Straight out of the box, the ArcRest felt like the ideal match for my Lorenzo Storioni’s sound projection quality, overtones and ease of playing, thus enabling me to use it instantly in masterclasses and concerts. Students, teachers and performing artists should greatly benefit from using the ArcRest.

    The Arcrest is extremely comfortable, easy to adjust and allows a richer sound to come from the back of my viola. It encourages a natural flexible hold, and the viola feels part of my body. Love it!

    I really like the ArcRest because of how comfortable it is and how it helps open up the sound of my instrument!
    Pedro MendezAssistant Principal ViolaIllinois Philharmonic OrchestraChicago, IL
    The carbon fiber viola ArcRest is what I have been looking for all my life! A combination of simplicity and nice design that not only fits perfectly on the viola but it gives me the perfect comfort and flexibility while playing my instrument.
    Roberto HenriquezFlorida Grand Opera and Palm Beach Symphony West Palm Beach, Florida, USA
    As soon as I tried the ArcRest I knew it was what I had been searching for. It opened up the sound on my violin, and it allowed complete freedom in playing. I highly recommend it!
    Linda OwenViolinPacific SymphonyOrange County, CA
    I happily switched to the ArcRest because of its lightness, nice design, and its minimal contact with the instrument. The most important feature for me, however, is that with the ArcRest, my violin feels more alive. I use the ArcRest myself, and I recommend it to my students.
    Boris ZapesochnyViolinRochester Philharmonic OrchestraRochester, NY
    My custom ArcRest is exactly what I’d been looking for.  As someone new to playing without a shoulder rest I was struggling to find something that would add a bit of support under the violin without detracting from the freedom I’d found in both my posture and sound quality.  I wasn’t sure what I needed when I first asked Tigran about the ArcRest but he worked with me to create one that is perfectly tailored to my setup and the carbon fiber reacts beautifully to my instrument which livens… Read more

    I took violin lessons with Tigran in high school and I think it’s so beautiful that his teachings of connection wit the instrument and liberation of a beautiful sound come together in this innovative shoulder rest. It is both firm and light, comfortable, and makes violin playing easier and more fun than with any other shoulder rest. I highly recommend it!
    Luby KiriakidiHarvard PhD student
    One very interesting thing, the ArcRest helps my sense of rotational motion with my shoulder and it makes the long hours immensely easier! After practicing some very high end virtuosic pieces on viola with a regular nice shoulder rest, my left hand is ready to give out, agonizing… I can’t use the traditional shoulder rest after using yours.
