 Re: Professional orchestras per population

Although this is a SWAG, my guess, for the US would be a population around 5 million. This using the criteria of a full time paid orchestra.

Since unlike a number of state/government supported orchestras in Europe, our groups outside of seeking the odd NEA grant have to be supported privately and ticket sales is just one part of the mix.

However, that said, once you remove the requirement for a full time membership, numerous communities support symphony orchestras with populations 1/100th of the above.
