Most would say first best and second best. Another way they differ is first often plays the higher notes, second lower notes, occasionally first is more associated with melody and second with harmony or secondary melodies.

What is the difference between a first chair and second chair clarinetist?

In my opinion, the first chair clarinetist is usually the section leader. The can be in charge of sectionals but also tuning the band. There is usually no difference between the first and second chair clarinetist except for playing ability. That is unless they are playing a different part. If the 2nd chair clarinet is playing a different part...there is your difference.

Who sits in the front row of the orchestra?

"First chair" is a term used in orchestras to designate the principal performer in each of its sections; that is, the principal performer for violas, cellos, oboes, etc. Violins, on the other hand, do no have a first chair - they have the concertmaster, who has special duties in the course of an orchestral performance. Where a first chair is responsible for tuning his/her section, the concertmaster is responsible for tuning the entire orchestra. The first chair for string sections, where two people share a single music stand, does not turn the pages of a music sheet. This duty belongs to the person sitting next to them (sometimes called the "inside" chair). To be a first chair, one must exhibit exceptional skill with their instrument and be a leader to the others in their section. This person will perform the solo parts written for his/her instrument; a first cello (or first cellist), for example, will play the special cello parts unless a special guest soloist is in attendance.


What do you do if you are the first chair tuba player and the second chair tuba player is a girl who is really hot?

It depends. Is she challenging you? If not, then just ask her out. If she's challenging your position, just treat her like any other person. Win with humility. Lose with humility. Then you can ask her out later! ;)

There really isn't much of a difference between the two, other than the name. Suggested answer: There is one difference between a couch and a chair, usually. Most often, if a chair looked like a couch of the same design, a chair would have one cushion (usually) and a couch would have more. Also, almost always, a couch is much longer than a chair, depending on the general appearance of each.
