Is a symphony the same as an orchestra?

Not really... although the terms are generally used synonomously, these days. An orchestra is defined as an ensemble of different families of instruments. So, that could include concert bands, big bands and the jazz orchestra (big band, 2 horns and strings), among others. A symphony is a specific musical form, usually played by a (fairly) specific ensemble. So, the term "symphony orchestra" is literally an ensemble capable of playing that kind of piece... thus the modern symphony orchestra. Generally, the term "symphony orchestra" is more specific, when talking about the classical ensemble.


What is the difference between a philharmonic and symphony orchestra?

Essentially there is no difference between a philharmonic orchestra and a symphony orchestra. Both are made up of the same types of instruments and are capable of playing the same music. A philharmonic orchestra is normally composed of a choir or choral society that it accompanies whereas a symphony orchestra is not. There is or there use to be a difference. The Philharmonic Orchestra was also called " The Musical Republic" the musician elected their Conductor, the economics, the character of their orchestra, share revenues. The Symphonic Orchestra was mainly musicians employed by a State, University, etc. Today I do not know if this difference still prevails.

How long would it take to be a professional cellist?

If you want a very rough ballpark figure (there are huge variations, of course) I'd estimate after a life in the music field that the average person who sits down in the chair on their first day as a graduate professional musician (such as a member of a symphony orchestra), has 16 years of playing experience behind them at that point. All bets off when it comes to "prodigies", though.
