America's most brilliant orchestra, one of the finest ensembles in the country (if not the world).

The New York Times

Each musician was asked to join The Cleveland Orchestra following a rigorous audition process that often attract hundreds of applications for each opening. The members represent the best orchestral musicians on Earth. They have earned degrees from the world's best schools and conservatories, with many now teaching at colleges and universities across Northeast Ohio.

They make their homes in communities across the Cleveland metropolitan area, raising children and pursuing a range of hobbies and interests beyond their musical professions.
