I have never played the violin, but I think it sounds beautiful.
It is the smallest and highest pitched regular use stringed instrument. I used to play the viola.
Really? I love the viola and its bass sound. Can you tell me more about it?
It is a deeper sound than the violin but higher than the cello or bass. There are pegs on it that you can adjust to change the pitch of each string.
Yes I hear that. I had a friend that played the cello. What do you know about the cello?
The cello has low pitch strings in the tune of C, G, D, A and is a lower octave than the viola.
I love the tune of C. Do you like Mozart by any chance? He has great strings.
Piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote 23 original concertos for piano and orchestra. These works, many of which Mozart composed for himself to play in the Vienna concert series of 1784–86, held special importance for him.
For a long time relatively neglected, they are recognised as among his greatest achievements. They were championed by Donald Francis Tovey in his "Essay on the Classical Concerto" in 1903, and later by Cuthbert Girdlestone and Arthur Hutchings in 1940 (originally published in French) and 1948,
Viola d'amore
The viola d'amore (; Italian for "love viol") is a 7- or 6-stringed musical instrument with sympathetic strings used chiefly in the baroque period. It is played under the chin in the same manner as the violin.
Structure and sound.
The viola d'amore shares many features of the viol family. It looks like a thinner treble viol without frets and sometimes with sympathetic strings added. The six-string viola d'amore and the treble viol also have approximately the same ambitus or range of playable notes.
