That brings up a question I've always wondered about. What is the daily schedule of a professional symphony musician like? Do you go to the concert hall 8 hours a day and rehearse? (I doubt it...I don't know about you, but I'd be dead). Is your day pretty much an 8-5 affair between practice, rehearsal, lessons, or other gigs? Or is the schedule somewhat varried? Just curious.

Do you typically write off Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights during the concert season or do you get breaks from time to time?
