>The tone of the French horn goes to the right of the player and downward. >From the tuba - exactly the opposite. The tone travels to the left of the >player and upwards. from the violin the tone goes upward. If the first and >second fiddles face each other, as they do now in the conventional >orchestra, the tone of the first fiddles travels towards the audience, the >tone of the second fiddles away from them. At a concert, the sound should >travel from the stage to the audience in the most balanced and effective >way. This simply cannot be done unless each instrument or family of >instruments is placed to maximum advantage. So I began to experiment; the >results were fruitful. I shall keep experimenting with every possible >combination of placement and level. I have no system. I shall let the music >decide, also the orchestration, the hall, and all variable conditions. For >each a different solution may be necessary.
