Rock bands have a closed set of material they slowly expand on. Orchestras play any music you set in front of them, several different pieces every performance, different performances every year, usually a big selling point of orchestral concerts is them choosing pieces rarely or never played by them before. It’s a ton more material to memorize and then they don’t need it memorized shortly thereafter.
