What is a "symphony orchestra"?
A symphony orchestra is a large group of musicians who play different musical instruments together to perform complex and beautiful pieces of music. This group includes string instruments like violins and cellos, woodwind instruments like flutes and clarinets, brass instruments like trumpets and trombones, and percussion instruments like drums and cymbals. The musicians follow the directions of a conductor, who leads them to ensure they play in harmony and create a rich, full sound that is enjoyable to listen to in concert halls or on recordings.
