"Would you rather be in the audience, or the orchestra? "
Orchestra , especially if sitting beside some absolutely gorgeous stunning super hot sexy female violin player that nearly every orchestra seems to have loads of. |

Exactly, I'd be the saxophone player, but I could always chat them all up in the bar at the after show party   |

I play a brass instrument in an orchestra. Just starting back after the pandemic.
It’s an amazing experience being in the middle of bunch of humans making music - all working together, and all so reliant on each other. I’ve played in lots of bands, but it’s a few levels up in terms of interplay and risk, particularly regarding playing in the right place at the right time .
And, yes, there’s lots of super-hot, supee-talented women in orchestras . |

Love going to Orchestral Concerts, especially ones in Cathedrals where the accoustics can be mind blowing.
Never been talented enough to play any instruments but I am sure given the skills my choice would have been a Cello. |

Both. Really miss playing in an orchestra, not been in one since I was at Uni. I'm in a choir which gives a similar feeling though.
Might try and join an amateur one now the kids are older. That's if any need an out of practice flautist  |

"Audience for me. I’d love to go to a classic music concert. Although I’d probably end up feeling so chilled that I’ll doze off! "
I went to a Classic Ibiza gig at Darley Park in Derby a month or so ago, even though the tickets were about £40, it was a brilliant evening  |

"Would you rather be in the audience, or the orchestra? "
Excellent question ace.
My initial reaction is orchestra as I have zero ability with musical instruments and have always yearned to learn one.
On further reflection though my answer is the audience for the reasons quoted above! |

"There is a 8 piece female orchestra on youtube called 'Otta'.
Will check them out "
Just have checked them out, and as good as they sound, wouldn't they be technically classified as a Band rather than an Orchestra? |

Yes you're probably right, I've no idea when a band becomes an orchestra. |

Ooooo, that's a toughie...
I've seen some cracking bands like Whitesnake; Scorpions; Black Sabbath; Saxon & the effect they have on a crowd is immense. Being in the crowd is amazing & fun too!
For me it's gotta be the "ORCHESTRA" playin' cos ya know you are twisting other peoples "mellons"....  |

"In the orchestra! I actually do play in them and let me tell you, there are some very "naughty" musicians out there!! "
You're not wrong, both orchestral and choral. I've been, erm, led astray by both. |
