a record number of violas

I know there are a myriad of viola jokes in here somewhere,
but I still think it is pretty awesome, especially in one of my favorite concert halls,
the Casa di Muisca!
The video is worth it just to see some shots of the hall.
The camaraderie and the communal pride in the community of violists is so touching and sweet!



We are informed this morning that a performance in Porto has entered the Guinness Book of Records as the largest ensemble of violas ever assembled. It took place in Porto in 2011 and there are 353 violas playing in this show.
