Winning folks over to the viola gang, one sticker at a time (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
Prelude
Have you hugged your viola today?
Sep 2020
Meet Viola the red panda. Life was okay, things were chugging along. But one day, everything changed. She met Ginger, the viola. From the first note, Viola knew that Ginger was the instrument for her.
As a recent viola convert, Viola needs to get used to some new facts. The strings start from A not E. D is the _2nd_ string. Tuning the C string by ear is…a new challenge. And if you and your twosetviolin friend ask her “Why the viola?”, she's going to have a word with you.
There really isn't one superior instrument, only one that the musician enjoys playing the most. Viola feels most joyful when playing on Ginger (the viola), a rather understated instrument. But Viola can make it sing with all the warmth and richness befitting a beloved instrument.
The story goes… There was a cellist who played one note all the time. One day, his wife asked, “The other members in your orchestra, they all play many notes, why do you only play one note all the time?” The cellist said, “You don't understand, they're looking for the note. I've found it.”
Meet Taria, the metronomic kitten. Taria has impeccable rhythm and helps Viola keep time while practicing. She is the youngest member at the Fluffy Philharmonic, and has yet to settle on one specific instrument.
Arctica is one of the most highly sought-after soloists but the Fluffy Philharmonic is her most favourite orchestra to play with. Her captivating electric blue eyes and natural elegance inevitably turns heads whenever she enters the room.
The Hotpot Shiba Friends are percussionists at the Fluffy Philharmonic. This inseparable pair of shibas are a fan favourite, with a considerable following on FluffTube. Their magic pet, Bola, makes cameos in their videos.
Xiaohua plays a high-end model huapsichord, called Dahua, which is a harpsichord that sounds like a flower. Xiaohua's positive vibes always give Viola a confidence boost when she gets nervous. He is very focused when playing, and is fully engaged with the rhythm and music.
Meet Alisa, principal trumpet at the Fluffy Philharmonic. She is an acclaimed trumpeter known for her profound tone and elegant phrasing. Audiences often marvel at her ability to play even the most challenging pieces effortlessly.
This is Osca, violinist and concertmaster at the Fluffy Philharmonic. He plays in a trashcan for better acoustics. Known for always showing up on time, not a minute early, nor a minute late, thanks to his speedy TrashCar.
