ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø's orchestras are some of the Institute’s finest ensembles. There are three types of orchestras to which all ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Orchestra students will be assigned throughout their degree program:
- ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Orchestra, which performs in Kulas Hall and Severance Hall, home of The Cleveland Orchestra
- ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Chamber Orchestra, which performs in Mixon Hall
- ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Opera Orchestra, which performs as part of two fully-staged productions per year
Unlike many other conservatories, all orchestra students, regardless of class or degree, are assigned together to concerts—and there are no "upper" or "lower" orchestras. Assignments are done on a per-concert basis and principals change for each concert.
