+1 for Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor. You can literally drop a pin on stage and hear it in the second balcony. I saw Igor Stravinsky conduct the Philadelphia Orchestra there as well as about 20 other Philadelphia Orchestra/Ormandy concerts, Cleveland Symphony/Szell, Berlin/Karajan , Sutherland, Rudolf Serkin and countless others.
Concert halls from around the world. What have been your favorites.
I have been to the best ones in NYC and many other cities in the US and Europe. Fisher and many others come to mind... But I am interested in your experiences.
All of the best live performances of music at all of the great halls, the music was on stage in front of me, Left to Right with natural front to back based on the stage and arrangements of players.
I have never been to a great live performance where there were player to my sides or behind. Hence my interest in Stereo and not 5:1, 7:1, 467:1 et. al.
But if you enjoy movies where the dinosaur or something is attacking from the sides or back...well...
I am still of the thought that the "Absolute Sound" is great live music in a great building. But I also like real, fresh and natural foods vs. processed, max corn sweetener foods....
