The viola ( / v i ˈ oʊ l ə / vee- OH -lə , Italian: [ˈvjɔːla, viˈɔːla] ) is a string instrument of the violin family, and is usually bowed when played. Violas are slightly larger than violins , and have a lower and deeper sound. Since the 18th century, it has been the middle or alto voice of the violin family , between the violin (which is tuned a perfect fifth higher) and the cello (which is tuned an octave lower). The strings from low to high are typically tuned to C 3 , G 3 , D 4 , and A 4 .

616-409: A chamber setting. Jazz music has also seen its share of violists, from those used in string sections in the early 1900s to a handful of quartets and soloists emerging from the 1960s onward. It is quite unusual though, to use individual bowed string instruments in contemporary popular music. There are few well-known viola virtuoso soloists, perhaps because little virtuoso viola music was written before
770-456: A complex relationship. For the longest time Finn had a crush on Bubblegum, and although she cares for him a great deal, she did not return his feelings for him. In the episode "What was Missing", it is implied that she and Marceline may have had some sort of relationship in the past. This later caused an online controversy over her and Marceline's sexual orientation. In the second-season finale " Mortal Recoil ", after being possessed by The Lich, she

2002-488: A lengthy viola solo. Gabriel Fauré's Requiem was originally scored (in 1888) with divided viola sections, lacking the usual violin sections, having only a solo violin for the Sanctus .

While the viola repertoire is quite large, the amount written by well-known pre-20th-century composers

Other experiments that deal with the "ergonomics vs. sound" problem have appeared. The American composer Harry Partch fitted
2618-830: A number of works for viola. Amplification of a viola with a pickup , an instrument amplifier (and speaker), and adjusting the tone with a graphic equalizer can make up for the comparatively weaker output of a violin-family instrument string tuned to notes below G3. There are two types of instruments used for electric viola: regular acoustic violas fitted with a piezoelectric pickup and specialized electric violas, which have little or no body. While traditional acoustic violas are typically only available in historically used earth tones (e.g., brown, reddish-brown, blonde), electric violas may be traditional colors or they may use bright colors, such as red, blue or green. Some electric violas are made of materials other than wood. Most electric instruments with lower strings are violin-sized, as they use
2772-580: A portable electrical outlet, music player, camera, alarm clock, flashlight, strobe light, and video player. Despite being an object used for recreation by Finn and Jake, BMO is still considered a close friend and treated as an equal by the two. BMO speaks English with a Korean accent.

2926-426: A portal to the land of the dead for Finn and Jake in return for their flesh should they return, the two dismissing it as a joke.

3080-516: A purposeless Lich trapped in a comatose state within Prismo's chamber until the events of "Wake Up" and "Escape from the Citadel" when Finn and Jake need to commit a cosmic crime to reach the multiverse prison called the Citadel. This stirs the Lich as he kills Prismo's physical body to reach the structure with the intent to corrupt it and its prisoners. However, having completely rotted Billy's remains off,
3234-544: A reborn Finn Sword planted at the top. A thousand years after the events of the series, two new adventurers, Shermy and Beth (the latter being a descendant of Jake), climb the tree, which has grown immense since then, and acquire the Finn Sword on top of it.

He ends taking Simon's place as
4004-650: A series of works entitled The Viola in My Life , which feature concertante viola parts. In spectral music , the viola has been sought after because of its lower overtone partials that are more easily heard than on the violin.

4312-976: A symphony with a main viola line: Harold en Italie , by Hector Berlioz .

English composers Arthur Bliss , Edwin York Bowen , Benjamin Dale , Frank Bridge , Benjamin Britten , Rebecca Clarke and Ralph Vaughan Williams all wrote substantial chamber and concert works. Many of these pieces were commissioned by, or written for, Tertis. William Walton , Bohuslav Martinů , Tōru Takemitsu , Tibor Serly , Alfred Schnittke , and Béla Bartók have written well-known viola concertos. The concerti by Bartók , Paul Hindemith , Carl Stamitz , Georg Philipp Telemann , and Walton are considered major works of

A person who plays the viola is called a violist or a viola player . The technique required for playing a viola has certain differences compared with that of a violin, partly because of its larger size: the notes are spread out further along
5082-769: Is Princess Bubblegum's uncle, former member of her royal family, and the main antagonist of the final season. He was created alongside Aunt Lolly and Cousin Chicle by Bubblegum in her attempt to have a familial bond with someone besides her brother. But Gumbald desired power and wished to profit off Ooo, deciding to get rid of Bubblegum by turning her into a foolish candy being by using "dumdum juice," which he used on his co-conspirators Lolly and Chicle in an act of betrayal. Bubblegum caught on and transformed Gumbald into an unintelligent punch bowl entity, convincing her to create candy citizens with low intelligence.

Despite being voiced by a female voice actress, BMO has no definite gender, and characters (including BMO) refer to BMO in a variety of ways throughout the show, including using both male and female pronouns, as well as terms such as "m'lady" or "little living boy".

Unlike the violin, the viola does not have a standard full size. The body of a viola would need to measure about 51 cm (20 in) long to match the acoustics of a violin, however it can only be played vertically like a Cello, hence the name Vertical viola .

Such tuning is generally easier to learn than using

Regardless of the memory loss, Gunter accidentally regains his memories and orchestrates
8470-476: Is strung with thicker gauge strings than the violin. This, combined with its larger size and lower pitch range, results in a deeper and mellower tone. However, the thicker strings also mean that the viola responds to changes in bowing more slowly.

The thicker strings also mean that more weight must be applied with

9240-417: The treble clef to make it easier to read. The viola often plays the "inner voices" in string quartets and symphonic writing, and it is more likely than the first violin to play accompaniment parts.

These techniques may be useful in performance, reducing the ill effects of an out-of-tune string until an opportunity to tune properly. The tuning C–G–D–A is used for the great majority of all viola music.

Different positions are often used, including half position. The viola
