Still, most orchestral recordings will give a perspective of the conductor and NOT a listener in the hall.
Jack Renner of Telarc fame took a different approach. I had the good fortune of participating (in a very minor way) to the ASO recording of The Firebird. He used a minimal set of mikes with a couple in the audience area where I sat as official "timer". Needless to say, I was reminded to be completely silent! No funky placement as with the Mercurys although the usual acoustic shells at the back of the orchestra were rolled back.
That was also a cool event to meet Dr. Stockham along with seeing and hearing the Soundstream recorder between takes. I remember Shaw giving the clarinet player grief for one take of his solo in the Borodin piece. He later nailed it to Shaw's satisfaction. :)
