How many people play cello in the orchestra?

Unfortunately, not many. They think violin and viola are better, which is not true, none of them are better, they all are equally great. If you are thinking about cello, you may want to have long arms, it helps with getting perfect sound on your instrument. [][][][][][][][][][][][][] I'm sorry, but your answer is really not at all correct. You may be entitled to your opinions, but not your incorrect facts. A symphony orchestra may have from 8 to 12 cellos; that's hardly 'not many.' In fact, in an 80-member symphony orchestra, the cello section usually constitutes at least 10 percent of the total orchestra! I don't know who you reference when you claim "they think violin and viola are better" but that's a totally absurd statement. And as for arm length? Apparently you know little to nothing about the cello.
