Violas sit in front of the conductor in an orchestra primarily for balance and blend within the string section. Their placement allows for better visual communication with the conductor and enhances the overall sound by ensuring that the viola's unique timbre complements the violins and cellos effectively. Additionally, this positioning helps the violists hear and blend with the other sections more easily, contributing to the overall cohesion of the ensemble.
