It depends on the type of ensemble and the conductor. In orchestras the horns usually sit in the back row towards the left side of the stage next to the trumpets or trombones. they may also sit in the middle of the stage behind the strings and woodwinds but in front of the trumpets and trombones. Seating arrangements in a wind ensemble vary more. Most commonly they sit on the second to last row on the edge of the arc on the right side in front of the euphoniums. They may also sit on the opposite side, where their bells face the audience. They may also sit in a similar position to the orchestral position, and in all of these arrangements they may be 2 rows of horns. The horns, as with all brass instruments, sit behind the woodwinds and strings, and may be on the same row as the saxophones.

Where do trumpet players sit in an orchestra?

The placement of the musicians of any ensemble depends on the preference of the conductor, but there is a common standard. Orchestras sit in a 180 degree arc formation so that every musician faces the conductor. This is true for most large preforming ensembles such as a concert band and sometimes smaller groups such as a brass quintet. The strings sit in the first few rows and the edges of the arc. If you are sitting in the audience the higher strings sit on the left side and the lower strings sit on the right, with violas, being the middle voice, sitting in the middle. The woodwinds sit behind the violas in the middle and the brass sit behind them. The horns sit on the left side (again, facing the stage), the trumpets sit in the middle and the low brass sit on the right. Since the bell of the horn faces backwards, any sound heard by the audience is reflected. By placing the horns in the back, the sound is easily reflected off of the back wall. In wind ensembles, the horns usually sit on the edge to make them easier to hear over the much larger brass family. However, every conductor may seat the ensemble differently.
