How is sound made on a viola?

Either the player's fingers pluck the strings or he or she uses the violin's bow to rub on its strings, thus creating vibrations.The vibrations of the strings enter the violin's body through the bridge and are transmitted from its base to the back of the violin via the sound-post.The sound-post is a short wooden stick or peg that is placed just underneath the bridge inside the body, where it is wedged between the front and the back surfaces of the violin.Thus both the front and back of the violin are made to vibrate, making the sound become greatly amplified.Sound is produced by a violin when the strings are caused to vibrate. This vibration happens by either plucking the string or running a bow across it.
