They were amazing...

...before buying season tickets, we sat at various seats throught Davies Hall.

Back of the orchestra, side boxes, balconies even in the 5th row.

Even the first balcony in the Golden Circle were not as good, IMO.

But then I like the detail and dynamics you get from being a little closer, while still getting the integration of the various sections of the orchestra into a single entity.

According to Peter Moncrieff, of IAR, who was living in the Bay area at the time, the best seat in the hall was the center of row M where the acoustic engineer sat to due his tuning.

We were a couple of rows back from there in row P.

Oh and my company made a small donation when I purchased the season tickets for better seats.
