Yay! I'm glad you liked it. The viola is an under-appreciated instrument. It's wonderful to hear someone play it beautifully.

Love seeing a shout-out to violists!

Violists never get enough love, so I was glad to see this post. :D

Yes, yes yes. I played viola (and piano) myself from tiny child through high school, and I always thought it was an under-appreciated instrument.
