[Frivolous punchline coming, delete if not interested] There's not difference, actually -- the violin player's head is just much larger, making the relative size of the violin seem smaller to the observer.
In truth -- The viola is slightly larger, tuned differently (In 5ths? C-G-D-A?) and has a much darker or mellower timbre. Violas don't create compliance issues, though, except in personal relationships (speaking from past experience). Forgive the digression. Carry on... Timothy J.

Oh, and as long as we're picking on instruments in the orchestra... Do you know the difference between a Violin and a Viola? . . . .

The Directive is thus unlike a bassoon, which is an ill woodwind that nobody blows good.
