But I miss orchestra it was such a big part of my life and I would give up a lot of things to go back and be able to be apart of a orchestra again.

    I feel like. Violas are underrated. Violins and Violas share 3 of the same strings, and one different. I'm a Violinist, and I think Violas are the most unique. To play the generic high notes on a violin from a Viola, all you have to do is shift. I especially like how in this song, Violas have the main melody. It should be like that in more songs and more people should play Viola.
