and, yes, you're right -- I inferred Villchur-era AR distance, not tiny-ness.

Yeah, the pursuit of right-sized music is what led me away from the Duplexes (which sounded great, and even big enough, but only in a pretty limited X-Y listening plane) to other similar-sounding solutions.

Very familiar with Carmina Burana, BTW. It was all the rage when I was coming of age (mid 1970s). I've never seen it performed live, though.

all the best,

  I agree. Whether by full orchestra/chorus in a large hall or chamber orchestra with singers in a church it can get the blood/pulse going.
  
  My single contrary experience was an outdoor concert at a college, located within a mile of the Pacific Ocean. Shortly after the performance began a light fog rolled in and all instruments were affected, starting with the timpani and bass drum. Talk about a "flabby" performance!

    It's great fun to sing. I don't much like listening to it, though.
