The front row is curved, and is made up of the first two chairs of 1st and 2nd violins, viola, and cello. The rest of the strings are in rows behind them, but angled outwards to the sides of the stage. In the center, behind the strings, are the woodwinds (first row is Flute and Oboe, second row is Clarinet and bassoon). Behind that is the brass, often in one long row towards the back. Finally in the rear of the stage is all the percussion.
