Viola or Chello?

I want to play both of these instruments. I love the sound of both (maybe the viola a bit more). Although the cello is much more expensive. I like the cello how it fits on me it is comfortable. Although the viola isn't as comfortable. Im having trouble, could some one help?

Viola or Chello?
In the string section the violas are all in the middle, usually have a supporting role and never have very much to do. Except support!


Cello!

Reply:Well obisouly when your playing the viola you got this neck pad thing. And when your playing cello you just lay it on the floor. For me I would perfer viola cause its lighter and its not that heavy.
Reply:Why not learn to play both. I played the cello in school...you could own one and practice with a friends. I love the sound of the cello. You can always pick it out when you hear it in a song.
Reply:I play both to and I like the viola more because for me the chello is akward. You are right though they are both beautiful instruments. If i were you i would go with the Viola.
Reply:Cello's are way cooler in my opinion, I used to play viola. Didn't like it at all.
Reply:Go with your heart! In this case, it sounds like Cello.

Reply:You should play the viola. There are many challenging parts for the viola and I tend to think that people give the viola a bad wrap. Violists are underrated!





I love the mellow sound of the viola! Don't get me wrong...the cello and the viola are both beautiful instruments, but we need more great viola players out there!
Reply:well i don't play the Viola or Chello but my advice would be to learn how to play both of them, i play clarinet and piano i mean once you can read music you could play any instrement you wanted all you have to do it know how to play the notes, but i would say go for both like i said i play clarinet and piano its easy to get the hang of both once you can read the notes in music! You could always start wich ever one you prefer and play that for a while and then if you get on with it really well and you really enjoy playing music continue wich ever instrument you decided on and then learn the other instrument you want to play!!





Hope this helps you

Reply:cello.


it's easier to find music for cello and it has a much more beautiful sound.


there is also a wider amount of music you can play on it.
Reply:CELLO!!! Seriously there are relatively few great pieces that feature the viola as the prime instrument. There are hundreds and probaly thousands of great pieces that feature the cello. Also if you have ever heard an electric cello it is much better sounding than an electric guitar (i play guitar).
Reply:Cello all the way. Very romantic!
