Hey!

I wanted to know how much violists here play in an ensemble (quartet, trio,...).
And what do you like to play the most.

Thanks!

great!

it`s really fun to play with others. when we`re rehearsing with our quartet it`s always fun. and the viola has good parts in that kind of music

Hi Kelley,

I`ve been playing the viola for 9 years. But the first 2 years I played the violin but everytime I played I got a headache

But I`m now absolutely in love with the viola.

During my high school career, I played in quartets, trios, and medium ensembles--along with our high school orchestra. It was a blast. When I went to college--WTAMU--the strings faculty, the Harrington String Quartet, created scholarships for a student string quartet, the West Texas String Quartet. I got the viola position. It was my first year with rigorous ensemble training. It was a lot of fun and I recommend it to anyone who`s willing to listen. Fortunately, I was approved for the scholarship next year as well. I`m really excited.
