orchestral performances

Full ensemble concerts

Orchestral performances are live presentations of music by an orchestra—a large ensemble of string, wind, brass, and percussion instruments conducted as a unified body.

The term covers symphony concerts, opera accompaniments, and film score recordings performed by such ensembles: The orchestral performances this season include all nine Beethoven symphonies.
