welcome, i'm glad you enjoy it, now you probably can play a concerto/sonata written for Viola and Viola alone, not some transposed violin pieces  rclxms.gif

anyway, how long have you been playing viola? do you still learn viola in miri now?

i'm currently in KL now studying (not music though), hmm, its my 3rd year playing viola now. Still lots to learn and appreciated =D Wonder is there any small orchestra which i can join here. Don't think my uni has one. hmm...

wow, playing for 3 years on the viola, you must be loving it a lot. Does that mean viola is your first string instrument? of you play violin also before? i can't imagine parents asking their children to learn piano brows.gif unless they themselves also love it!!

are you still learning viola from a teacher now? is your teacher good? ever plan to take any exam?

My main instru is piano =) my first string is violin but i changed to viola. =D yup loving piano and viola =) I opted not to take exams. I still play pieces, and i played in orchestra. =) really fun to play viola honestly, esp in orchestras.

I'm finding a intermediate one prob 1k-2k pricing hand made viola =) I'm still using my beginner viola, but it sounds rather well, not sharp and screechy sound.

violin's fun =) don't worry for not having musical background or about your age. It's music =) It's for everyone =D

Think I'll switch back to my viola bow =/ haha. bad thing bout viola is that there're not many solo pieces to play with. so normally I just play some contemp songs or make up one.

I normally tune with a piano =P if the piano's out of tune, then my viola's out of tune too xD haha. But i don't really get where the argument is going, so um, I'll stay out of it =P

My viola is really rusting, + my uni is starting soon. + not sure whether my uni has an orchestra or not =P haha. oh well, just have to polish my skills when I'm back T.T Seems like I'm never improving ><
