Which answer lists the orchestras according to their size from smallest to largest?

To list orchestras according to their size from smallest to largest, we generally categorize them as follows: a chamber orchestra, which typically consists of 15-40 musicians, is the smallest; followed by a standard symphony orchestra, which usually has 40-100 musicians; and finally, a large symphony orchestra or philharmonic orchestra, which can exceed 100 musicians, especially for large-scale works. This order reflects their typical sizes and the number of musicians they employ.
