String Set up

Manny

How did the orchestra like the way Osmo set the strings up for Beethoven 9. I thought that it sounded really good and maybe even improved some things in the string sound. It was really neat to hear the 1st and 2nd violin phrases that echo each other to come from opposite sides of the stage.

Beethoven 9 sounded fantastic in third tier right.

Franklin

ps for those that didnt see it, The strings where set up (left to right) 1st, cello (with basses in the back behind them) viola and second
