When I started this group two weeks ago, I wasn't sure if anyone else would be interested. At first I was getting e-mail notices when someone posted, but then for some reason they stopped. Anyway, I figured there wasn't much interest, but this morning decided to check in, again. Man, 15 members and all kinda posts! Thankyou all for joining. I'm having a blast finding my way around the viola. It's not just a big fiddle tuned lower. It's got it's own beautiful voice. and raison d'etre.

	mudbug says: 9/21/2011 2:10:14 AM You're welcome, fishingcat. Thanks for joining! Yes, the subtle beauty of the viola isn't something "shouted from the rooftops". That's not it's nature, but definitely appreciated in the "underground."
