Since vegetarians, and more recently vegans, were and are important constituents of Talman societies, many composers allowed vegetarian and vegan substitutions for nonveg(etari)an instruments. Often, non-veg(etari)an instruments were considered interchangeable with their veg(etari)an counterparts, and veg(etari)an composers refused to use nonveg(etari)an instruments at all. This shifted the balance against larger wooden fixed-pitch instruments such as the viola organista, which required animal glue to manufacture and repair. | |||
Preferred vegetarian materials for strings were steel, copper, or cellulose from plant fibers, instead of animal gut, before the invention of modern synthetic materials. | |||
Horsehair in bows are considered vegetarian but not vegan. Vegans use rosined sticks instead of horsehair bows. | |||
Since the invention of cell-cultured gelatin in Fyxoom, such substitutions are no longer required for instruments that required gluing. | |||
