I once had front row center seats to a Peter Tosh concert. Not only could I feel the intensity of the show, I could smell it too! 😎 There is something to be said about sitting so close.....you really feel as one with the performers. I can only imagine a symphony to be much more intense.
Sat front row at the symphony...
Yesterday, I got to sit in the front row to hear the Pittsburgh Symphony do Beethoven's Piano Concerto no 1 and the Shostakovich Symphony no 10. I know we all talk about audio gear here, but I have to tell you, sitting in the best seat in the house (Heinz Hall) was an amazing audio experience. I'm not sure the best audio gear in the world can quite match it. Maybe I'm wrong, but I was mesmerized by the acoustics of the hall and the dynamics of one of the world's best orchestras.
