What is the difference between a philharmonic and symphony orchestra?

Essentially there is no difference between a philharmonic orchestra and a symphony orchestra. Both are made up of the same types of instruments and are capable of playing the same music. A philharmonic orchestra is normally composed of a choir or choral society that it accompanies whereas a symphony orchestra is not. There is or there use to be a difference. The Philharmonic Orchestra was also called " The Musical Republic" the musician elected their Conductor, the economics, the character of their orchestra, share revenues. The Symphonic Orchestra was mainly musicians employed by a State, University, etc. Today I do not know if this difference still prevails.
