Violas are very loud and energetic. They hold a grudge very easily and are kind of salty. Violas tend to get excited easily and are always happy. She is adored by people due to her looks and her contagious personality. She is very funny and has a very cute laugh. Violas tend to make impulsive decisions and do not think them through. Be careful, the results are sometimes disastrous. She is very bold and unique. She has beautiful eyes. She does not get offended easily. If someone is insulted she will stand up for them and take the blame. She is strong willed and determined. She is a friend for life and a great companion. Even though she tends to hold on to the past a little bit, all she needs is a push! If you have a Viola in your life, you know how much of a handful she is. Violas always think with their heart. Her spunky, energetic, cool, sweet, personality could win anyone over. They're the perfect friend and will stand up for you no matter what.
Viola is my dude.

An instrument nobody knows off in an orchestra and thinks is a violin. It is also one of two instruments that uses alto cleff.

Larger than the violin but smaller than the cello. It sounds sort of chocolaty, but playing it is difficult because it's range is fit in an instrument like 30 % too small. Like the 2nd best instrument in the orchestra, behind cello. Often underappreciated, but it's really one of the best instruments out there. Violists themselves are quite eccentric- a big bundle of different personalaties.
The violas like to call themselves the meat of the orchestra sandwich, which basically means that they like to hide under the pieces of bread rather than call too much attention to themselves. Violists have to struggle with an instrument whose range is forced into a sounding body of air which is perhaps 30 percent smaller than the acoustically appropriate volume. This makes for a constant quest for the ideal viola sound (which some would say would be the viola sitting in its case) and the distinct air of the absent-minded professor amongst violists. If you need someone to fix your computer, start with the viola section.
