Hi! I'm Elizabeth and I am 10 years old. I absolutely LOVE the viola because it has a beautiful tone. I also love that I can play many different kinds of music-- pieces written in minor keys that are smooth and soft and pieces written in major keys that are fast and have a cute touch.

My Dad is a Doctor and my Mom is a G. A. Teacher, a substitute teacher for three schools and a GREAT MOM! I have an older sister, Victoria, a younger brother, Stephen, and a little sister, Katherine.

I am in Book 4 of Suzuki Viola. My two favorite pieces in the world for viola are The Witches' Dance by Pagannini and the The Concerto for Two Violas by Telemann (second movement).

I don't know if I want to be a violist when I grow up or the president (ha-ha!). I absolutely LOVE music and that is why I play the viola. Sometimes I do get frustrated and mad while practicing and I think that I hate the viola, but I really know that I love it. I hope that I always play the viola, even if I do become the president!
