Orchestra notation and harmony
For instance I have 3 groups of violins and 3 instruments in each group. I want a clean C major chord from those 3 groups. What's my best choice? To have 1 group play a C, another one an E and the last group to play a G? Or maybe have each group play the chord: 1 instrument C, 2 - E, 3 - G in every group.
What is the most common way it's done?

If you have three groups and need three notes, I suggest the simple solution! Your alternatives are div.a 3 within each group or even double stops. The former won't sound much different, but will complicate the notation. The latter is a rather different effect. You gain intensity of sound but lose agility.
