A symphony orchestra is a group of musicians who specialize in playing classical music. They typically consist of a number of string instruments such as violins, cellos, and violas; woodwinds like clarinets and oboes; brass instruments like trumpets and trombones; and percussion instruments like timpani, drums, and cymbals. The members of the orchestra are usually divided into sections that play different parts of the piece. You can find information on local symphony orchestras by searching online or asking your local arts organization for more details.
