Although still grim stats, I've found that there are about twice as many "primary income source" orchestral jobs as most people think.

There are actually 24 (vs. the often used number of 12) full time orchestral jobs in North American that pay well enough to be your only source of income. It should be noted that of those 24, 2 are in Canada.

Email me if you're interested in more information about this, my sources, etc.

1. Los Angeles
2. San Francisco
3. National Symphony
4. Atlanta Symphony
5. Chicago Symphony
6. Indianapolis Symphony
7. Baltimore Symphony
8. Boston Symphony
9. Detroit Symphony
10. Minnesota Orchestra
11. St. Louis Symphony
12. New York Philharmonic
13. Cincinati Symphony
14. Cleveland Orchestra
15. Oregon Symphony
16. Philadelphia Orchestra
17. Pittsburgh Symphony
18. Dallas Symphony
19. Houston Symphony (at one time anyway)
