		Full size orchestras may sometimes be called "symphony orchestras" or "philharmonic orchestras"; these prefixes do not indicate any difference either to the instrumental content or role of the orchestra, but can be useful to distinguish different orchestras based in the same city (for instance, the London Symphony Orchestra and the London Philharmonic Orchestra).
		At first the orchestra was an aristocratic luxury, performing privately at the courts of the princes and nobles of Italy; but in the 17th century performances were given in theatres, and Germany eagerly followed.
		In ancient Greece the orchestra was the space between the auditorium and the proscenium (or stage), in which were stationed the chorus and the instrumentalistss.

		Conductors of choirs are sometimes called Choral Directors, and conductors of military bands and other bands may hold the title of Bandmaster.
		Orchestral conductors typically use a baton (though not always: this is up to the conductor's personal preference), and giving a clear beat to the players is central.

	Will music be safe in their hands?
		German orchestras, paid on civil service salaries, are sometimes not unreasonably accused of playing for their pensions.
		The first thing orchestras must do is recognise that what they do is no longer confined to a fixed space and time, a concerthall in mid-evening.
		What these seven conductors have in common is that all are under 35 and none is burdened by the expectations of an unlamented past in which a maestro was judged by the size of his record contract.

		The conductor decides on the orchestra, the times, the music etc. But when the orchestra plays and it is either unwilling or unable to play like the conductor wanted, he is totally powerless.
		Titled ‘Orchestra has some lessons to consider’, it makes some excellent points and asks questions that are valid in any city with a symphony orchestra.

		Moorhead, longtime principal clarinet of the orchestra, is on the committee formed to find a successor to Jahja Ling, who is winding up 14 years as music director this season.
		He or she is expected to be an inspiration on the podium, mastering repertoire from Haydn to Mahler to Stravinsky, as well as a celebrity who puts an appealing face and personality on the orchestra for marketing, fundraising and educational purposes.

		Observing the orchestra's evolution and its incredible responsiveness to these very different conductors is one of the fascinations on this journey through a century of music-making.
		One of the orchestra's favorite maestros was Pierre Monteux, "who had so much… musicianship and wisdom to impart." Recorded live in Vienna 1963, his Tchaikovsky Romeo and Juliet is lush and surging, going from ardent lyricism to turbulent passion, and sounds fabulous.
		It is important to recall that this was the point at which the orchestra had really begun to be considered the greatest in England, and for good reason.
