Yeah. I'm also trying to make an argument that we will play better and more
in tne if the trumpets aren't right behind the horn section.

Check out this photo of the NY Phil. PERFECT placement of brass and perc.
Imo. You have to use your whole stage.. Corners too. Timp and brass in each
corner. My orchestra uses HIGH risers for brass and timpani for visual
effect. This means we have to be right behind the horns. Bad for pitch, bad
for tone.
