This orchestra, and most, if not all, others use pretty much the same compliment of instruments from all four families: strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion. What determines which instruments (and how many of each) are used in a particular composition is what the composer has specifically called out to be used. Each composer envisions his/her piece with a certain array of instruments, so there is really no "standard" configuration that is generically applied to all composed pieces.
Why would they be any different to instruments in any symphony orchestra? Maybe their distinctive feature is being in Chicago?
