Not really none are really easier than others, string instruments are harder to play than other families because they require a good ear which is useful for instance so you can tell if a note is the right pitch, to sharp, or to flat. you will find with any string instrument that the fattest string will be the hardest string to get a good sound from which is why there are different bows for each instrument.

My violin teacher recently advised me to switch to viola because i have really big hands (and I'm proud of it, etc). So maybe if you have small hands (short fingers) you should play a smaller instrument and if you have large hands (long fingers) you should play a larger instrument.

ORDER OF STRING INSTRUMENTS smallest > largest

Violin

Viola

Cello

Double Bass

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 :)
