Lista över symfoniorkestrar i USA - List of symphony orchestras in the United States
Det fanns 1 244 symfoniorkestrar i USA från och med 2014. Vissa amerikanska orkestrar upprätthåller en full 52-veckors uppförande säsong, men de flesta är små och har kortare årstider. Från och med 2007 fanns det 117 amerikanska orkestrar med årliga budgetar på 2,5 miljoner dollar eller mer.
Kritiker på 1950-talet identifierade fem amerikanska orkestrar som de stora fem , de betraktades som ledare inom "musikalisk spetskompetens, musikalisk kaliber, totala kontraktsveckor, veckolön, inspelningsgarantier och betalda semestrar." De fem var New York Philharmonic , Boston Symphony Orchestra , Chicago Symphony Orchestra , Philadelphia Orchestra och Cleveland Orchestra . Men konceptet och listan är nu föråldrade. Musikkritiker i dag inkluderar fler orkestrar på sina listor över "topp" amerikanska orkestrar.
Anmärkningsvärda amerikanska orkestrar listas här efter stat. Ungdomsorkestrar listas i en separat lista över ungdomsorkestrar i USA . För orkestrar i andra länder, se lista över symfoniorkestrar .
