Viola Lessons in San Antonio
The viola can often be confused with the violin because of how similar they look. A bit different from its cousin the violin, the viola creates a deeper sound and it plays music written in the alto clef rather than the treble clef. Violas are typically responsible for playing the harmony in musical numbers.
