[@saritavenkatapathynaidu9533]

lol, “the whole violin group” is cute.
In case it matters to you, a small group of people playing strings/other instruments from an orchestra is usually denoted with the title trio, quartet, or quintet - based on the number of musicians. I assume that the number is in Italian? Or is it just based on Latin roots… now I’m going to look this up, but in any case, you could fail in looking like a pro by referring to the whole violin group with the root for the word + the suffix “tet” if it fits!

[@saritavenkatapathynaidu9533]

… it is Italian, which is of course of Latin origin largely, so I guess my instincts were right. I know music theory, the etymology of music is relatively unknown to me!
