Traditional high-church Anglican, hymns, anthems and plain chant for psalms. Evensong once a month. For Easter, Xmas and Carol services, brass and timpani are added and our neighbour RC Cathedral's choir.I used to sing in the Anglican choir, and likely will again.
Live acoustic classical - small ensemble to small chamber orchestra up to 6 per year. Some of which I would be recording.
Orchestral concerts 6 per year. Some of which I would be recording.
Canberra is the nation's capital, so there are festivals every year or so, and I go to as much of that as possible. not counted here in the yearly average.
I don't attend amplified / Eq'd / flanged / phased / futzed with rock or folk events - if I can avoid them ?* - because I value my hearing too much. Live Jazz is also often way too loud.
?* I have a few friends who play in these fields - and when we get invites we can't duck - I go with my ear-plugs in, and still feel attacked.
