Mute Tourte Cello

A genuine orchestral staple, the Tourte Cello Mute is designed to give players that classic warm, softened con sordino tone used throughout ensemble and solo repertoire.

Made from flexible moulded rubber, it slips quickly over the bridge when required, gently dampening upper overtones without killing the cello’s natural character. The traditional Tourte design is popular because it stays attached to the strings when not in use, allowing for fast, silent mute changes during performance.

Compact, lightweight and easy to use, it is one of those simple case essentials every cellist should have on hand for orchestra, chamber music and general muted playing.
