Violists

It is sometimes hard to tell when to call a composer modern, as opposed to Romantic. In general you can say that the Moder Eara in music started around the year 1900. However, many composers continued to write pieces in a romantic fashion long after that.

Composers that were born in Bohemia. Bohemia is nowadays the Western part of the Czech Republic.

Composers who also play the viola and as such performed their own or other composer's compositions.
