Where did the viola come from?
The viola is an descendant of the Vielle family of instruments which originated in Italy in the mid to late 1400's. (it is not known exactly when the Vielle family was invented or by whom.) These instruments were called Fiedel in Germany and were played "on the arm" leading to the name "Viola da Braccio" in Italy (to differentiate them from the family of "viola da gamba", which were played with the instrument resting on the legs). The closest relative to the viola is the Violin. (The Viola d'amore, which was used in the Baroque period, and was played in the same manner as the violin and viola, but had 6 or 7 strings which were fingered on a fingerboard with frets like the Viola Da Gamba, and had additional sympathetic strings under the fingerboard which vibrated 'in sympathy' with the bowed, fingered strings.) The Viola is the Alto of the Violin Family. It also fills the part of tenor, when another violin is filling the voice of alto (i.e., in String Quartets and symphony orchestras). Attempts at a Tenor viola produced an instrument so large that it could not be played under the chin, and was held similarly to the cello. The earliest iconographic evidence of a viola is in the 1534-5 frescoes in the dome of the Sanctuary of Soranno. The earliest known surviving viola was made in 1560 by Andrea Amati. The viola has been treated as a solo instrument right along with the Violin. In the Baroque era, the solo potential of the instrument was realized by composers such as Telemann, Vivaldi and J. S. Bach, who wrote several concerti, sonatas and other solos for the instrument. Often, composers of the era claimed the viola as their favorite of the violin family.

How was the viola deveolped?
Gaspara de Salo made violas in the 1500s, and the viola came into existence somewhere in the early to mid-1500s. Originally known as the 'alto-tenor' violin, the term 'viola' now refers only to the viola da braccia, the instrument held in the arms.The viola has largely been ignored in contrast to another member of the string family, the violin. However, after more composers began to take notice of the viola's beautiful low register, they began to write more parts for the viola, causing a need to improve the original viola.Vuillame invented an experimental contralto viola, while the violist Herman Ritter created his 'viola alta', which should be considered the starting point for modern viola making. The composer Wagner heavily endorsed his viola.Lionel Tertis invented his 'Tertis Model' viola in the 1930s.Newer models of violas continue to appear, balancing ergonomics with traditional sounds of this rich and beautiful instrument.
