Where are the best seats for a symphony orchestra performance?
This is largely a matter of personal preference. Some people like to be right up next to the stage so they can watch the facial expressions and technique of the conductor, soloists, and string players at close range. Others like to be up in the balcony so they can look down and see the entire orchestra, including those players in the rear sections. Still others like to be in the balcony on the left side of the hall so they can see the keyboard clearly when a piano soloist performs.
