So, I've searched quite alot, and I have yet to find ANY anime sheet music for the viola.
Well, I found a trio piece from Escaflowne, but it was a very very piece.
So I've found a song I like, and I wonder if anyone would/could write this piece for the viola?
I'd be really grateful, also, I read the rules, and it didn't say anything about asking for pieces to be written, but if this isn't allowed, I'm sorry.
This is the piece I would like.

Thank you very much!
Also, if you need the mp3, it can be found here:

It's the song 'Party Night'

Also:
This is the alto clef, the clef that violas use.
Please don't write the song and use the wrong clef.

No, violist.
Means I play the viola.
Not violin.

Why not ask the person who made the music sheet to make it for viola?

Well, that's it.
I don't know who made it.
It was on animescores.com, and I tried there, but nobody would write me a part there, so I was wondering if maybe someone here would.

I can transpose it, but I need to know how many steps I need to take it up or down. If you can find that out for me, I'll do it.

Erm...

The first note is a third on D for violin...
So to make that a third on D for viola would be..

6 steps up.
Sorry if that's no help -.-'

If it helps, using the treble clef in comparison to the alto clef, since treble clef is known as G and the alto clef is C (the middle line on the staff), this is how I figured it out. This is written as Treble note and then fingering in treble using alto
Treble D = Fingering for alto is treble's C
Treble E = Treble's D
Treble F = Treble's E
Treble G = Treble's F
Treble A = Treble's G
Treble B = Treble's A
Treble C = Treble's B

Pretty good considering I'm only starting to learn to read other clefs. =P I might take a look at the music later if I have time.

If you really are going to make the music for viola, you're not going to transpose it per se. All you're doing is changing the treble cleff to alto cleff. Here's what I think the first measure should look like, and then you can go from there.

Yeah, gedtag is right, I'd do it myself, but I can't make PDF files.

Don't worry, I've got you covered.

:Edit: Done. It'll be awhile before its up on my site, so I'll attach it here for optimum benefit.
