It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Any excuse to hear 5/2 again

The sound in renovated Severance Hall is sooo much better than it was with the old plywood shell. Bass is a lot more solid, and reverb time has been lengthened slightly. Also, there is a functional, excellent pipe organ. I wish the orchestra was recording there (there are some videos, including some Bruckner, Mahler, and part of the recently released Brahms cycle).

There are spots with odd acoustical anomalies (e.g., if you sit under the balcony on the sides of the main floor, you get strange echos from the sides and the ceiling). Probably most halls have things like that going on, though.
