I was supposed to learn viola this year but my orchestra teacher never taught us more than about 15 mins worth.

Re: Instruments?
Did you ever know that cellists are considered the happiest of the four instruments of the orchestra?

Re: Instruments?
Jokes told by viola players:
"How many trumpeters does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Three: One to screw it in and two to say how much better they would have done it."
"What's the difference between a trombonist dead in the road and a squirrel dead in the road?
The skid marks are in front of the squirrel."
"How do you make a trombonist's car more aerodynamic?
Take the Domino's sign off the roof."
"One day, a trombonist went to a rather shady part of a major city to buy a part for his trombone. He leaves the trombone in the car, and decides, 'Hey, it's only going to take about a minute, so I probably don't have to lock the door.' When he comes back out, the door to his car is ajar. 'Oh, no,' he cries, 'what if they stole my trombone?' He looks and finds two trombones in his car."
"Why is a bassoon better than an oboe?
Because it burns longer."
"What is an oboe good for?
Lighting bassoons on fire."
"What is the range of a tuba?
Twenty yards if you have a good arm."
"What do you call a drummer with half a brain?
Genius."
My apologies to the rest of the orchestra (who I've just managed to simultaneously offend, especially the trombonists). I don't mean it. Really.
