What do the other orchestra members do when a soloist performs?

∙ 14y ago
When an orchestra piece features a soloist that plays alone for the most part, the orchestra just sits and waits until they come in for their part of the song. Lots of times though, when there's a soloist, there are background parts to go on behind the solo music. These are when another instrument or section of music plays quieter, but it's to enhance the melody or add harmony to the soloist.
