Is a viola higher or lower than a violin?
I play the viola, and it is lower than the violin. It has four strings like a violin, but on the violin, the strings are G, D, A, and E. On the viola, the strings are C, G, D, and A. So the viola can do four notes lower than the violin. I prefer the tone on the viola to the violin. It is also a bigger instrument than a violin, even though it is held the same way. If you are wondering whether to switch from the violin to the viola, you definitely should, in my opinion. It was one of the best things I did musically! The viola is better :)

Can someone restrain the violin to be a viola?
The violin will not by itself try to become a viola, so it doesn't have to be restrained. Should you want to restring it, you would have to use viola strings en set them at the right pitch. But since a viola is larger than a violin, you'll never get the exactly right viola sound in the ears of connaisseurs. Lesser people will hardly hear the difference.
What is simalar to the violin?
The violin is part of a family of string instruments that all have the same basic structure but vary in size- this family is made up of the violin, the viola, the cello and the double bass. Most similar to the violin is the viola- they look very similar and it may sometimes even be difficult to tell a small viola and a large violin apart (until you play them). The main differences between them are that the viola is larger than the violin, and that its pitch is lower.
