    From 2:37 to 3:11 was heaven when I played this piece in year 6. I'm a viola player and the fact that we got 13 bars of the violas getting the melody made my heart soar. It was only 2 violas against 20 violins and yet we were louder than them at this point on performance night. Truly one of my favourite pieces.

    The cello soli is absolutely beautiful. I am a cellist so I may be biased, but it is very comforting to hear the deep "voice" of the cello.

      cello is the superior instrument voice deep but not to rumble like bass and able to hit high notes like viola and violin but still retains a rich sound

    Played this freshman year of high school and the viola soli at 2:37 has an interesting story. I was one of the only two violas that would play out in our section. The other viola was put on the other part. By the time of the concert, I knew the soli for the first orchestra by heart. I got congratulated for a solo I didn’t have (:
