The pay varies widely in symphony orchestras. Many small towns have orchestras that pay "per service" (meaning per rehearsal or performance). Larger cities generally have salaried orchestras that range in pay based on prestige and budget. A third tier orchestra (Buffalo, Oregon, North Carolina) generally pays in the $30,000-50,000 range and up to the "big five" orchestras (Cleveland, Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia) which have starting salaries around $110,000.
According to an article by Douglas Yeo (the Bass Trombonist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra:"...The base scale pay for members of the top American orchestras (Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, New York, Philadelphia) is approximately $2000+/week (minimum guaranteed scale). These orchestras typically offer 10 weeks paid vacation, full medical and dental coverage, generous sick leave, a pension (after 30 years service or the "rule of 85" which provides a full pension to players whose age and years of service combined equal 85) of over $70,000/year, and many other excellent benefits. After passing an initial probationary period (of one to three years depending on the orchestra's policy), tenured members enjoy job protection and security as members of the American Federation of Musicians. Dismissal can only be made for cause which must be proven to an arbitration panel, often made up of peer members of the orchestra...Many orchestras make either audio or television recordings. Current AFM scale for a three hour recording session (symphonic scale) is approximately $350.00 not including yearly residual royalty payments made to the individual musicians."
