Why do you think there needs to be more viola and cello players than tuba players in an orchestra?

Uhmmm... Because celli and violas don't make as much sound as tubas, and you can have only one tuba in the whole orchestra, and have it overpower all of the other instruments, but when you only have one cello, it's hard to hear them~same with the violas.

Why are brass instruments in the back of an orchestra?

There are a number of reasons for this. the first and main is so that the rest of the orchestra can hear them properly. the second is because they could block the rest of the orchestra from the audience if they were in the front, as they take up a lot of room. this could stop all of the sound getting through, and make the rest of the orchestra harder to see. There are other reasons as well


Why does the percussion section go at the back of an orchestra and the strings section go at the front?

The percussion section is typically placed at the back of the orchestra because the sound of percussion instruments tends to carry well and can easily project over the rest of the ensemble. Placing them at the back helps to balance the sound and prevent them from overpowering other sections. The strings section is typically placed at the front because their sound is more subtle and delicate, and having them closer to the audience allows for a more direct and intimate listening experience.


Which section of the orchestra became more important in twentieth-century music?

Is orchestra music acoustic?

It is, you can hear it, but I think more of art. An orchestra is an instrumental ensemble, usually fairly large with string, brass, woodwind sections, and possibly a percussion section as well. "Acoustic" as opposed to 'Electronic' or 'Computer Generated' - usually, but not always entirely. An orchestra may include some electronic keyboard and string instruments. And of course, 'orchestra music' may be simulated by sophisticated computer programs.


Are all instrument players get equal pay in an orchestra?

No, they do not. The highest paid is the concertmaster, which is the 1st chair violin. Other 1st chair players make more than lower players, and some instruments are paid more than others. Wind players are more valuable, because the sections are smaller and everything is one player to a part.
