The orchestra includes members of the DeClassified, the ACJW program and New York Philharmonic teaching artists, members of the New Jersey Philharmonic, the Orchestra of St. Luke's, the horn quartet Genghis Barbie, as well as first-call Broadway musicians. This year the orchestra will include members of the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra. In past years players have included members of the New York Philharmonic.
