I started out as a violinist in 4th grade, but I switched to the viola in 9th grade and now I'm in 12th! Violas are such a rarity here in our school so it's fun to be something people aren't! smile

I love the timbre and the deep low sound a viola can make! And yes, most people do NOT know the difference between a violin and a viola.. but they are both unique and awesome instruments! i love string orchestrass <33

I love playing the viola because it is very unique and has a clef that it shares with only one other instrument. Please tell me other people play the viola! There's so few and far between of us today. It makes me sad.

Oh!

Don't you hate it when people ask what a viola is? It makes me feel so insignificant next to the violins or cellos. Just saying...



hey there, i've been playing viola close to 14 years. i love playing it as well mostly in orchestra's and chamber ensemble settings. my favorite composer is atonin dvorak. he KNEW how to write themes for viola in orchestra. i mean take "New World Symphony", awesome viola lines in that piece.

yea, when people have seen me carrying my case around in the city i get asked if its a trombone or sax that i have in the case, then i tell 'em its a viola then they get this confused/dissappointed look on their face

I love the viola for its depth, richness, and, to be honest, I really enjoy not having the melody very often. My favorite part about being a violist is getting to play amazing counter-melodies and being a part of the wonderful blend of a full orchestra. 4laugh

love love looove the viola ever since i switched from violin in 9th grade. the deeep voice and being in the middle of two sections (cellos and violins) allows me to listen to both melodies and tunes... it's such a wonderful experience heart
