What of Viola do you play? How does it describe your personality? As stated in the last post, I play a Samuel Eastman 15.5 model and I get a really good sound out of it. It would even be better if I get a new set of strings. It describes my voice. When I speak people often ask me to repeat several times before they hear me. I also am like the middleman in arguments, the sane individual who always gets caught in the middle of the extremes. I help both violinists and cellists with their music(on occasion Bassists). so, (back to article top)

I only play the viola for 4 years by now, so I just got my first own viola which is made by Klaus Deimler, a German from the famous Möhrendorf. She is 40 cm long and has got a very sonourous (?) sound. When I chose her, she was really very very different from all the others...

PS: Sorry for my terrible English and my problems to describe my viola exactly, but English is not my mother tingue...

Well, my viola is light, easy to play, and has a nice, loud sound. I use a 15" so that I may switch to violin easier.
