99% Will Fail This Viola Quiz...

[@ViolaKing]

The thumbnail wasn’t an actual quiz question, I made it up myself. What do you think the right answer is? How many notes are on a viola? A. 12 B. 57 C. Infinity D. 83

[@adrianbrooking8930]

Def 83

[@ashiapmanman]

no fucking way

[@elissahunt]

I'm going with infinity if microtones count. 😄

[@MsTemperTantrum739]

57

Did you mention that you're putting together a viola quartet? I was working as I listened to your video, so I'm not sure if I heard that or not lol. Anyway, if you do, I'd love to see it featured on your channel! My favorite quartet is the Prague Cello Quartet ... I'm continually amazed by what they can produce with 4 of the same instrument. So, yeah ... 4 violas would be amazing! 😍

Velvet Underground is the perfect name for a rock band featuring a violist! Velvety tones are the hallmark of the viola, don’t you think?

Can you do a video explaining how to do wrist vibrato? I've been using arm vibrato and now I am unsuccessfully trying to learn wrist to relieve tension in my arm.

[@MsTemperTantrum739]

You only played for 1 YEAR?! 🤯 How do you play so well? You sound like a professional! Were you a violinist? 😮 Edit: I'm asking all of these questions because I'm an violist and violinist, that's played violin for over 2 years and viola for a year. And I'm not as good as you on thd viola. 👋🙂

[@ViolaKing]

Lol I said 8 years at the beginning but I didn’t annunciate very well! I played violin for 9 years before that too

[@emily_toots]

You have a really pleasant voice

[@elissahunt]

This was fun. I'm not a violist (though it was my first instrument) and I did really well. I wasn't keeping score though, so James probably did better. But I didn't miss the sax question (it's always treble clef no matter which type of sax you play).

[@oxoelfoxo]

Seems Velvet Underground's viola is a drone (see Heroin and Venus in Furs). Too bad there don't seem to be viola solos in any of their songs.

wWhen I do a test I try to read through twice and am not afraid to change my answers before submitting.

[@umiviolalefut1593]

I am currently studying luthier studies... I have never heard a professional call it a waist... so I was like... there are two wrong answers....

[@Tsunam.i]

I tried doing this quiz and I got everything right!! I promise I didn’t look at the answers

[@oxoelfoxo]

I wonder what percentage of classical musicians also have a good knowledge of other music genres?

[@ViolaKing]

A lot of my friends at school listen to genres other than classical. It’s common for them to have separate playlists of classical and pop music to listen to

[@oxoelfoxo]

@@ViolaKing but you're more of the Brett-type-purebred-classical-musician apparently, hehe

[@chrisebbesen5798]

Twelve, but they repeat
