My favorite symphony,the Pastorale, from the second row, a $20 last minute ticket for seniors. Who knew?

We recently went to hear the CSO. The Symphony Center is one of those old concert halls with graceful curved lines and gilded edges. We were way up in the nosebleed seats which can feel disorienting if you have vertigo, however the acoustics were still very good. The featured performance was Rimsky-Korsakov's "Sheherazade" under the baton of guest conductor Mei-Ann... More

Our family are regular symphony goer's and really appreciate the level of talent found inside these doors. My son is a high School cellist and loves seeing YoYoMa who visits many times a year. Excellent restaurant adjoining and a nice gift shop round out your visit in the heart of Michigan ave, right across from The Art Institute

I loved the symphony, even though the flamenco singer was a little weak. Everything else was wonderful, and since I suspect she'll never be back I'll just rate the symphony, which is always there.

We went to see Spanish Passion. We had seats in the center section row N. Thought the seats had great sight lines and were above average in roominess and comfort.

We had terrace seating behind the stage which is great fun as a musician to be so close and be able to watch the conductor and musicians. Sound quality suffers a bit in these seats but not too much. Catch a lecture before the concert if you can.

We were able to get tickets on short notice for the CSO and we were so glad we did. Although we were in the upper balcony, it did not effect our view or enjoyment of the exquisite talent of the orchestra. I look forward to coming again on our next visit.
