Abstract
Survey data gathered from 65 musicians in an east coast symphony orchestra were used to examine the correlates of commitment to the organization and commitment to the music profession. The study results indicate that the two types of commitment are the product of different antecedent factors and have different implications for musicians' continued membership in the orchestra. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.Keywords
