"Violins are seated as per European way, as opposed to American way"I didn't realize they were classified as such. Which is which, may I ask? I'd guess the "European" is the "split" arrangement, because I think Vienna also uses the "split" arrangement..... I never really observed this until recent time.....

from any of the great Europeans, such as VPO or BPO. Cellos center, violins on the side. Maazel had the cellos right with Geber always on that seat with Majeske on the lead concertmaster seat.

Since you turned me on to these videos, I now post one (see others!) from a lovely Sarah Chang. go to Meditation, also.
