What's so dramatic about always hiding in an orchestra and not playing by yourself or in exchange with the other musicians in the form of solos, duets, trios, or "what have you."
What's so cool about playing violin concertos always alone?
In the end, the orchestra sounds better to/for me. I haven't played violin very long, neither.
Oh, I forgot about chamber music, but do they still usually get to play in orchestras because their music is better in many ways, apparently offers solos for minor instruments and singers, I know like in Beethoven's 9th Symphony.
It's funny how expressive solo orchestral instruments are when they always play together. The piano, which I play, is merely a lot of notes. I'm only playing one instrument, to be good at. I also like musical theater, which can get you heard, though you're not the focal point even in that situation.
Chamber musicians seem to be attacking one another, too, compared to orchestras with the conductor and immersing yourself in that game, where it only seems to be the real thing, which it should be.
When I'm in a group of more than a few people, I still feel I get heard or have fun doing it, like singing together. I'm usually better than the others is why, so I'm not following along. I just follow the conductor or accompanist.
