Re: Why do Classical musicians look so miserable?

The joy felt by individual orchestra members comes from their knowledge that they are faithfully fulfilling a composer's intentions. This joy is felt from within, with no need to demonstrate it physically . . . just my contention.

I mean just looking happy the way some jazz musicians like Clark Terry did.

Imagine 90 musicians looking "happy" during the end of Mahler's Ninth Symphony
or the beginning of Tchaik 6!

It's always amusing to note how non-professionals perceive what professionals experience during a performance. Of course, there are 90 different personalities on stage and each of them will react (or not) in his/her own way depending on their mood that particular day.
