Not fast, they are fine for most players. You will get a gap between successive pitches (in other words, legato is out of the question.) The biggest problem I had, though, was getting the players to play them FIFTH touch and not 4th touch, which gave the wrong note. It appears that among the free-lancers I usually write for, they see 97% 4th touch, and only rarely other types.

Tobias' plugin adds the sounding pitch, which helps.

How practical are touch-fifth artificial harmonics low on the viola? Is that a big stretch?
