What is the layout of a Double String Orchestra?
I've been listening to particular works by Vaughan Williams and Michael Tippett for double string orchestra.
On the score it says 'Orchestra 1' and Orchestra 2', the latter has words like 'desk 1' and 'desk 2' next to the instrument names.
What does this mean? Where is the second orchestra placed? Can anyone recommend books or websites on this as I can't find anything useful?
Thanks
I've had to set these up a few times with various orchestras. Orchestra one is to the conductor's left. First violins on the outside, second violins inside them, cellos next to them (with double basses behind) and violas on the inside (just left of centre). Orchestra two is a mirror-image of orchestra one to the conductor's right.
