Each summer, Carnegie Hall's Weill Music Institute brings together the brightest young musicians from across the country (ages 16-19) to form the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America (NYO-USA). In 2014, following a two-week training residency with leading professional orchestra musicians, these remarkable teenagers will be joined by conductor David Robertson and violinist Gil Shaham for an eight-city coast-to-coast US tour.

Laugh at violas all you want but then you hear that wonderful tone of the section at the end of the video and it makes you really appreciate what violas bring to the orchestra.
Boyd Gibson that's what I love about the violas. they have that warm full sound, so beautiful when you can pick it out from the other instruments
Wasup Doc my violas suck though
That’s the best few measures they get in the entire piece
No it doesn't
TRUE and I play
My friend is a viola and once we were outside and he set his case down on the floor and I gave him this look and said "omg stop littering"
You talk to instruments?!?
Your friend IS A viola?
@@max-cd6hh As in "my friend is a running back". So I guess he means "he is a viola" as a position in an orchestra .
How far does the range of a viola extend?
The distance you can kick it.
😭This comment hurts me.
What's the definition of perfect pitch?
Throwing a Viola into a dumpster without hitting the rim
#cellistforlife
You might not be a violinist like me, but at least you aren't a violist. :D
that's mean...
That’s good
1:00 What is the difference between the first and last stand of the viola section? Half a measure AND a half tone...
Loved the video. Heres another viola joke, what do a viola and a lawsuit have in common? Everybodys happy when the case is closed. Heres one more, why should you leave a viola on your dashboard? So you can park in the handicapped spot.
The original version of the second joke is: why do violinists switch to viola? So they can park in the handicapped parking place.
This is unoriginal. I’ve seen this before.
FennFoxx Another joke:
What's the difference between an onion and a viola?
No one cries when you cut up a viola.
(Cruel, but... 😂)
Stfu viola players are more talented than violin players
You know what’s amazing about the viola?It has all the good stuff about the violin without the squeaks:))
In Dutch, a violinist is called a violist. We call a viola player an "altviolist". 😋
alt means old
Alt also comes from alto, which the voice lower than the soprano. That is why in French we call a viola an "alto" and a violist an "altiste"!
Yeah but you guys eat frogs so nobody's listening to your advice...
altiste sounds much like Autist in Portuguese.
Charlie Lambert Alt is German, we're taking about Dutch here.. It comes from the Alto..
Ling ling can make 40 violas sound like violins
but why would you want that?
violas are much better
What's the difference between a Viola and a trampoline?
You take your shoes off to jump on a trampoline.
ouch. Hope you don't get splinters.
............ your dead to me

As a viola player I feel loved and part of a team for once
I like it surprisingly for a violist myself. Very funny I knew what all the answers were sadly xD
Here's another one. Why are violists like broken light bulbs?
They are always waiting for their time to shine.
I am a viola, and I strongly believe that the Violas are a very important part of the orchestra. It can play high, it can play low,
And is a good solo instrument.
The Robloxians that was a good one but #cellonation
I only know that I like putting viola solo in my composition. I LOVE the low C of viola.
But nobody like my work after that.
Blake, Shut up. If you have nothing good to say about us violists, then you can leave. No one needs your negativity here.
Chappy A Reverse viola jokes lol
SO CAN CELLOS HAHAHAHAHAHAHEHEHEHEHHAHAHEHEHEHAHHHHHAAHAHRHEHEHHEHAJDJFIEJ
How many times does a first violin have to twist a light bulb to screw it in
None they just stand there and the rest of the world revolves around them
as a violinist i am so so sorry that violas always get the short end of the stick. yall did nothing to deserve this, you have a deep rich tone that isnt as screechy as violins! massive respect to all the violists
But then there's the fact that they are built to be doomed. The Size-Register ratio of viola is just bad for their timbre and projection. The actual size should have been like a smaller viola da gamba or something...but then it would be almost impossible to play it because neither can you hold it like a cello, nor like a violin.
I am tired of hearing Viola jokes (I hear them everywhere. Even my friends make some). The viola is a beautiful instrument! I love its sound quality. We really are unappreciated (As a fellow Violists). Honestly I was happy to see the end of this video :)
I come here to collect more viola jokes, of course. #UpsetViola
I'm a former violist, can't play anymore due to hand issues. I had a music teacher in middle and high school that also happened to be the one I took music lessons from. He told me once that violin players are a dime a dozen, but get a really good viola player....then you have something worth holding onto. I switched to viola from violin in 7th grade and started kicking butt.
I bet it was your left hand.
Actually I've had problems with both, but am right handed. Miss playing, but...it is what it is.
There’s only 2 violas in my class, me and my friend 😂😂
Violas are so underrated like we seriously deserve more recognition and credit for how much work we do for orchestra, because let’s be honest without violas the orchestra would be nothing
No... the second violins would just take their part.... Jk y'all are fine or whatever.
lmaoooooo. yeah, violas are at my top spot of importance, followed closely by the rope for hanging oneself.
LaNia Baker yea but with violins there will be no orchestra and cellos and base hmmm?
What’s the difference between a viola and a vacuum?
You have to plug in a vacuum before it sucks.
This was so cute - can't wait to show clips to my orchestra students. . . Loved the violin gang fight and the cello choir cover of "It's a Wonderful World"! Good luck at Carnegie this summer!
Who else here is a viola?
I am!
Me..
Meeee
#cellonation
I’m a troll
I am the only violist in my class
I appreciate your positive and humorous contribution to an ongoing dilemma for us violists.
It's a violin with a poor body image
violas are the best
Why is it dangerous to leave your viola unattended?
Because a double bass player will come and mess around with it.
Lol they play Star Trek at the end and I play that this year in my school
OMG YASSSSS BRING OUT DA VIOLAZ (and then everyone rejects us, ik how it feel, ima viola player)
I will love this instrument forever because through this very instrument emerges the unforgettable, heart-burning melody of the Andante Moderato section of the 3rd movement of Beethoven's Ninth.
TwoSet joins the chat
I'm triggered as a viola player all my life. Come on guys, show us some love!!
Isaiah Lozada I agree, but some of these are pretty funny, especially since they’re not true! 😉😉
Same
Violin: for life
Viola: doesn’t even have e string
See this is why everyone likes to pick on you, you get triggered over jokes. No other section is quite like that.
Isaiah Lozada you don’t deserve love
The Viola is the best😄
Bravo! I use to tell viola jokes all the time to my student orchestras. The viola section rarely laughed. One of my favorites: What's the difference between a viola and a coffin? The coffin has the dead body on the INSIDE. HAHAHAHAHA. Sorry :(
Elaine S how far does the range of a viola extend
The distance you kick it
Show those violas some sympathy. We need love and appreciation like puppies.
Viola 4 life
violalivesmatter, this is straight up viola buzzfeed
"Are you, are you serious?! What the f**k!!"
😄😄😄
OMG the opening melody of Bernstein's Somewhere from West Side Story. I just played this part about a couple of weeks ago. And that is one of the most beautiful viola soli that i ever played in my orchestra.
Laugh all you want. You're just jealous of us
I play the viola. I really wish norr people knew about them I would tell my friends that I play the viola and they would either say 'thats like a violin, right?" Or "what's a viola?" And finally, " Oh,you mean vIola,(i capitalized for emphasis)right?" We don't mean a lot to some people, but I think that is because we are kind of in the middle. Every part of an orchestra is important, we just need a little more recognition.
when I tell people I play Viola there like whats that and I'm like -_-
OMG THE BERNSTEIN AT THE END
There's a place for us...
I'm happy to be a violist. We can play those good high notes, but also the juicy low ones to.
My parents are both violinists in our local symphony. They started me on violin, but I switched to viola because I don’t like the whiny sound of the e string. I have to deal with a constant stream of viola jokes XD.
thats how i fell playing the viola
I am a proud violist!💃🎻
1:19 that guy looks just like me but 3 years older and I play viola as well... creepy.
Twosetviolin should watch this.
I'm a violist and I'm proud
Unattended viola one is so freaking true in my class
Got happy for a moment
Violas dont get enough attention
correction: violas don't get enough POSITIVE attention...lolol
Its because they can be easily replaced by the third violins
That doesn't stop me form telling you viola jokes on the daily Nawal, lol
.. okay I'm a violinist, but what about the bassist?
2 Set
I walk into the orchestra room with my viola friend to grab my cello, and I say "Oh my gosh I hate violas!" (In a kind of joking way). Little did I know that EVERYONE in that room was a viola but me.

Is the joke that there isn't actually a viola part in "West Side Story?"
Viola is the best instrument in orchestra
Chewy Suarez thats just wrong

❗👊🏾When your a violinist 🎻and here your teacher talking to a atviolaist 🎻about notes and✨ not understanding 🙄😭what their talking 😚 about👑
How do you keep your violin from being stolen? Put it in a viola case!
I am not an orchestra player and i dont understand anything except for the hide and seek joke (which made me laugh)
lol we asked everyone in our class what a viola is and noone answered correctly xD
Not even in West Side Story is there a place for violas. Bernstein wrote for seven separate Violin parts and four cello parts but no viola parts!
How was the "tonal"-answer Fugue born?
Two violists tried to play a in unison.

Why did the musician smash their instrument on the ground while at a concert?
Because it was a viola.
Ok violinist
Fantastic! So clever, oh...and by the way, what exactly is a viola? I know a ukelele has four strings...Is it like a ukelele? Is it as difficult to play as a ukelele?
Jon Haddon (an aspiring (actually expiring) violinist.
A viola is a four stringed instrument tuned an octave above a cello and a perfect fifth below a violin, slightly larger than a violin and played in the same way- something every person who plays a string instrument (such as a violin) should know. It is NOT like an ukulele (an because the correct pronunciation is oo-koo-lele, not yoo-ku-lay-lee therefore it starts with a vowel sound and should be preceded by an) AT ALL and I have no idea where anyone, ESPECIALLY a violinist would get that notion. What instrument did you think was in the video, miniature chin guitars?
A viola is a giant third violin. Lol just kidding
for some reason this reminded me of the bee movie script but nonetheless very well said
Jon Haddon It's like a giant unloved third violin.
Oh hey me didn't expect to see you-me here.
How many people searched violist definition in google after this
I dunno... these jokes seem a little FLAT. nvm they’re as SHARP as ever.
I’ll leave now.
P.S violas are the best
