<p>Bashmet: </p> <hr /> <div>A conductor is a person who leads an orchestra. Originally the person responsible for keeping time in an orchestra was an older instrumentalist, usually a percussionist, who could no longer play his instrument at a high level. As music got more complicated, conductors became responsible for more things. Famous conductors include [[Daniel Barenboim]], [[Paul Phillips]], and [[Antonio Baptista]].</div>

<p>Bashmet: </p> <hr /> <div>The '''viola''' is one of the four main [[String Instruments]] that comprise a string [[orchestra]]. It serves as the alto voice of the violin family.<br /> <br /> Though similar in shape to a [[violin]], the viola is slightly less smaller and lower in pitch by five notes. The tone of the viola also sets it apart from the [[violin]], being more richer in tone and sound.<br /> <br /> The viola is subject to many jokes because of its lesser role in orchestral music, implying that one does not require as much talent to play it. However, many musicians claim that the viola is actually more difficult to play and it rewards more than the [[violin]].<br /> <br /> Some famous viola players include [[William Primrose]], [[Paul Hindemith]], [[Yuri Bashmet]], [[Nobuko Imay]], [[John Cale]], and [[Whit Schroder]]. Many famous violinists also play the viola as a secondary instrument, such as [[Itzhak Perelman]] and [[David Gilmour]].</div>
