Violin is smaller hence makes more sound than Viola which is bigger. Violin string names are G D A E, Where as Viola strings are C G D A. The string names are different, sizes are different. So they sound different.

A viola's typical sound is described as deep and mellow, and it generally has a slower sound than the violin due to its thicker strings. Violins are the highest pitched instruments in the string family. Their sound carries above other instruments, making them popular for melody parts.

Hi, I want to learn to play the violin, and I am not sure which violin to go for as a beginner. I don't have any local shop nearby, so I probably would have to order online. Can someone help with which violin I should buy?
You should always go to the store and check out yourself by playing on different acoustic instruments. Even if they look the same, the sound won't! Play by yourself and pick the one you like.
