Melos

Melos rosin is owned and run by Christos Sykiotis, established in 2002. He previously worked as a freelance cellist and teacher for ten years playing with a number of well known - and not so well known - orchestras and ensembles. Christos Sykiotis started making rosin in 1988 during his studies in Germany. After a lot of experiments with the high quality pine tree resin & colophony of Halkidiki as basis & other pure ingredients, he finalized the recipe for the cello rosin production. Testing with different strings, instrument bodies & temperatures, helped him to produce fantastic results for the violin, viola & bass rosin too. Christos as musician knew exactly how much & how, rosin can "bite" the strings of an instrument.
