A Musical Mission
 

Hey guys,

I can't seem to figure out what this strangely alluring instrument is so I have decided to turn my question to the public. If you can identify it for me it would be very much appreciated.

That link will take you to a track from one of the Call of Duty 4 missions. The instrument in question comes in at 0:14.

I have looked around to no avail, thanks in advance.

the instrument that comes in at 14 seconds is a viola. it's like a lower pitched violin.

thank you, very much appreciated .. is that its original tone or was it synthesized somehow?
