Instruments are a phenomenal investment, especially violins and violas and celli, because the value really doesn't go down, and it just rises up at incredible speed and has done, and I believe will continue to do so, because these rare instruments are not getting more. They are getting less and less through the years.

Russian Musician

Angela Duckworth

I didn't tell my kids, 'You have to play viola, and you have to play piano.' They chose these things on their own, and I don't think we have to give kids every choice, but we do have to give them some choice because that autonomy is crucial for fostering passion.

American Psychologist

Anthony Gonzalez

I've been playing the viola since I was 6 years old, and then I decided to switch it up a bit, so I've been playing the violin since I was 11. I started playing the piano when I was 11, and I started playing the guitar when I was 10.

American Musician

Elliott Carter

The Third Quartet I made the instruments in pairs - Two different pairs - Violin and viola, and violin and cello. They played very different things from each other all through the whole piece.

American Composer

Twyla Tharp

I started formal piano training when I was 4. From there I had little violas, and I had dancing lessons of every sort and description, and painting lessons. I had German. And shorthand.

American Dancer

Laura Harrier

Viola Davis is incredible - she's kind of the biggest career-wise inspiration for me. Brilliant actor, so intelligent, so strong. The path that she's made is incredible.

American Actress

Nish Kumar

Viola Davis is just one of those actors who is never bad in anything. She could be in an awful film but you'd never come away from it saying she was bad.

British Comedian

Kris Allen

II know very, very little about the ukulele, but I actually grew up playing the viola from 4th grade through high school.

Victor Borge

The difference between a violin and a viola is that a viola burns longer.

Danish Comedian

Rutina Wesley

Viola Davis should be a household name. So should Angela Bassett.

The viola is usually part of an orchestra, playing harmony rather than melody.

Orchestra Role

A viola's strings are tuned a perfect fifth below a violin's, giving it a lower range.

Deeper Strings

The viola is larger than a violin, so players often have longer arms.

Physical Size

Violas are often found in gardens and are known for being hardy, versatile flowers.

Garden Variety

Violas are sometimes confused with pansies, but they have smaller flowers.

Not Pansies

Violas come in a wide range of colors, often with multi-colored petals.
