Mandolin orchestras are structured like string sections in standard orchestras, with 1st and 2nd mandolin sections,1st and 2nd mandola sections, a mandocello section, plus an acoustic bass. They were at the peak of their popularity from the late 19th c. to the end of WW I. Where they persisted after that, they were often associated with immigrant communities and left-wing politics. Their popularity has revived somewhat in recent years.
