Answer 1

I have a concert in may, I think. I play viola, BUT my other fellow 7th grade violist betrayed me and joined the already oversized cello section, and the other 7th grade violist can’t read music and just can’t play in general, so when it’s just my class practicing, IM ALL ALONE AND IT SUCKS like today we were playing this slower song that we just got earlier this week and since I’m the only viola basically I started playing a tiny bit to fast but wasn’t sure if I was ahead or not, so I tried listening to the other sections, but still couldn’t tell bc the song is new and I don’t know what it’s supposed to sound like. I didn’t want to wait until the others catch up bc then there would be no violas and also I didn’t want to end up being behind so I just kept playing. I got all the notes right just sight-reading, but I was 2 measures ahead in the end. (just so you know, orchestra is mandatory at my school)

Nurrrr thats horrible!! I play violin and acoustic, violin for orchestra. For me, I looked mine up and listened to it. I'm playing Impulse - Brian Balmages. It sounds pretty cool. Anyways I'm top my class 2. I have 2 lead my violin section. R.I.P..... Anyways look it up, 9 times out of ten, your cellos are like way out of tune. So they probs need either to be manually tuned (moving first fingers and all) or they never played in their life. Anyways I'm in high school. So yea more stressful,  and harder materials. Anyways viola is sorta easy. Very similar. You'll do good!! Trust!

Okay so what you want to do is find a nice hour or so every day, find a quiet space, and practice. never overwork yourself, though. i wish you luck queen!!!
