Viola da gamba (gcide) | Viola \Vi"o*la\, n. [It. See Viol.] (Mus.)
    An instrument in form and use resembling the violin, but
    larger, and a fifth lower in compass.
    [1913 Webster]
 
    Viola da braccio [It., viol for the arm], the tenor viol,
       or viola, a fifth lower than the violin. Its part is
       written in the alto clef, hence it is sometimes called the
       alto.
 
    Viola da gamba [It., viol for the leg], an instrument
       resembling the viola, but larger, and held between the
       knees. It is now rarely used.
 
    Viola da spalla [It., viol for the shoulder], an instrument
       formerly used, resembling the viola, and intermediate in
       size between the viola and the viola da gamba.
 
    Viola di amore [It., viol of love: cf. F. viole d'amour], a
       viol, larger than the viola, having catgut strings upon,
       and brass or steel wires under, the keyboard. These,
       sounding sympathetically with the strings, yield a
       peculiarly soft and silvery sound. It is now seldom used.
