Honestly I bet most people who "hate" on violas don't actually hate them, they just do it for the memes.

My wife played the viola. She chose it because it reminded her of herself. Often forgotten middle child between two better likes siblings

That's why Brett's lofi sounded perfect.

A viola player is running late for a gig and as he drives he realizes that he's about to run out of gas. He pulls up to the gas station and runs inside the store to pay. When he gets back to the car he sees that someone broke his car window. Horrified, he runs to his car concerned that someone stole his viola, he opens the door only to find another viola in the backseat.

as a bassist, I've always had a lot of respect for the viola players. Reading C clef is a pain, and you have to be able to switch between clefs quickly... and the tone is so much warmer than a violin

A trumpet player friend of mine tells this joke: What's the difference between a violin and a viola? A viola burns longer.

My 16 year old daughter has played Viola for about 4 years now... She thought of quitting last year until her orchestra teacher literally freaked out and pulled her aside saying she can't because she's a "natural" Viola player which is VERY difficult... Was surprised to hear that until We really dug into what she meant... This year, she was put on the senior and college level groups and invited to go to State and National competition teams... Was really cool for her because she always felt she was just performing average... Gonna buy her a really nice black Viola because I'm dang proud of her...

Viola must be the best instrument because nobody ever named their kid Violin.

Came across this video by accident, and it immediately struck a chord. My late father, Jose Rodriguez, was a professional musician for more than 50 years. And, yes, most of his career was as a violist, starting with several small, regional orchestras and eventually making it to the "big show," the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. He spent 27 years as a member of the PSO viola section. Music directors he worked under included William Steinberg, Andre Previn and Lorin Maazel. Not to mention a long list of guest conductors and soloists ranging from Leonard Bernstein and Isaac Stern to Yo-Yo Ma and Alicia de Larrocha.

After almost 60 years, I am getting a viola. I learned a little in junior college in 1963 because I liked the tone of the viola compared to the violin. Life stopped my learning and now I want to try it again. Thank you for the insight that you have shared with us! Next week (hopefully) my journey will continue!

The orchestra string section is incomplete without it. The richness of the sound, and the dissonances and harmonies you get from the inner voices are what truly make things click harmonically.

I have always favored the more mellow and warmer viola sound over the high pitched sharp sound of the violin

Everyone hates it?? It's the instrument that makes orchestral pieces sound warmer, it's apparently very underrated. Not seldom is it the viola section that plays a run that totally opens up a chord or musical part. I don't play violin by the way, but I love the sund of the viola

I heard it for the first time in 3rd grade. I picked it because I knew it sounded most like me. It's not a happy, chipper showman. It's a bit darker, more soulful and acts as an extension of my voice. I have an extreme shyness about my voice, so I can easily let my hands sing for me and hit those manly tenor and deep rich alto notes with ease and feeling.
