Subj: [DR-L] Mozart Gran Partita

Anyone out there got suggestions for a seating plan for the K361 Gran
Partita for 12 wind and bass?

We have an idea to perform it "in the round" with oboes at left hand
end, clarinets then bassetts, then 4 horns ending with bassoons and
string bass completing a tight circle. The audience would be all
round us - which may or may not be an advantage. The audience
wouldalways have a players back to them which may not work well. The
acoustic is of the ectremly resonant kind.

Maybe a conventional layout would work best but which one?

Any thoughts, anybody?

Thanks
Geoff
