The results are in, and the Cleveland Orchestra is the world’s favorite orchestra.

So, at least, says the London-based website Bachtrack.com, an international concert finder that ran a poll to learn which group the world loves best.

After a month of online voting, Cleveland emerged Tuesday in the top spot, earning 20.3 percent of 11,895 votes from 97 countries. Its closest competitors were Ireland’s RTE Concert Orchestra and the Berlin Philharmonic, which garnered 12.4 and 8.5 percent, respectively.

Fans of the Cleveland Orchestra probably aren't surprised. After all, it was they who pushed the organization into the lead and joined the more than 5,200 Americans, or 44 percent of the total, in voting since Sept. 6.

“We have 60,000 social media followers whom we invited to vote, and they clearly were engaged,” said Ross Binnie, the Cleveland Orchestra’s chief marketing officer, in a written statement. “We want to thank our fans for voting for the Cleveland Orchestra.”

Music-lovers from Ireland and the U.K. comprised about 21 percent of voters. Most of the rest, according to a press release from Bachtrack, came from Germany, the Czech Republic, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Sweden, France, and Canada.

Behind the winners in the top 10 were the London Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, the Buffalo and Czech Philharmonic Orchestras, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, and the Gewandhaus Orchestra Leipzig.

Cleveland’s traditional rivals, the Vienna Philharmonic and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, finished in 13th and 14th places, respectively. Also in the top 20 were the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, the European Union Youth Orchestra, the Ulster Orchestra, the Oregon Symphony Orchestra, and the Video Game Orchestra.
