\u00a0Laugh all you want at the viola \u2013 Cynthia Phelps, the New York Philharmonic\u2019s Principal Viola<\/a>, ignores the haters. She doesn\u2019t even bother\u00a0to hold up a hand and tell them\u00a0to talk to it. She just produces beautiful music on the viola and lets it speak for itself. In the fourth installment of our MAW series, learn all about the viola, why people make fun of it, and why they are wrong, so wrong. Phelps introduces us to the instrument\u2019s\u00a0repertoire, and talks about what she\u2019s been doing to spread the gospel of the viola at the Music Academy of the West this summer.<\/div>\n
