It's difficult to say definitely that any instrument would 'never' be used in an orchestra, since composers can score their works (and arrangers can score other people's works) for any instruments they choose.

However, the guitar, unless used as a solo instrument, would be very unusual.

The same is true of the recorder.

The piano, though very common as a solo instrument withorchestra, is not normally present as part of the orchestra.

'Folk' instruments such as the banjo are scarcely ever included in an orchestra.

Other instruments, such as the Saxophone (other than as a solo instrument), are quite unusual but not unknown.

Which brass instrument would you usually find in a symphony orchestra?

In a symphony orchestra, you would typically find instruments like the trumpet, trombone, French horn, and tuba. Each of these brass instruments plays a unique role, contributing to the overall sound and texture of the orchestral music. The French horn, for example, is known for its rich, warm tone, while the trumpet often carries melodic lines. Together, they enhance the dynamic range and color of the orchestra.


How many instruments recorders play in an orchestra?

In an orchestra, recorders typically play a limited role, often as part of a smaller ensemble rather than the full orchestra. The recorder is a woodwind instrument that can play melodies and harmonies, but it is less commonly used compared to other woodwinds like flutes, clarinets, and oboes. In a standard orchestra setting, you might find one or two recorders, especially in pieces that specifically call for them, but they are not part of the core instrumentation.
