Orchestras

 Orchestras

Today in class I been working orchestras and today I got a few Questions & Answers about orchestras.



Research About Orchestras


How do the orchestra seat the instruments? So the percussion instruments are at the back of the orchestra then there are the brass instruments in front of the percussion instruments. Then the woodwind instruments in the centre of the orchestra then last but not less than string instruments are at the very front of the orchestra.

What instruments are included? Trumpet, Trombone, French Horn, Bass Flute, Flute, Violin, Viola, Tuba, cello, Piccolo, Oboe, Carinet etc.

Who is the most important member of the orchestra? Conductor/Music Director because without the conductor the people playing in the orchestra won't know what to play and won't know what note to play.  

What is the biggest group of instruments? The string instruments, the reason why they have more string instruments is because the string instruments keep the brass & percussion instruments from tring to be louder.

Do we have any orchestras in New Zealand? Yes we do, we have the A.P.O. which stands for Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, C.S.O which stands for Christchurch Symphony Orchestra.

How many people are in an orchestra? One hundred people.
