Students often prefer lightweight hard shell viola cases that are easy to carry to school and lessons. Teachers, advancing players, and performers frequently choose oblong viola cases for their additional storage space and organization. Musicians who travel regularly may prefer fiberglass or high-performance cases that offer increased durability and weather resistance.
