Thanks, Paul and Bob. That hall is wonderful acoustically, and odd
lighting-wise. There are places where the balance between top light and
angled front light is reasonable. The wind players were mostly in those
positions. The pianist was in a place where her nose and cheeks often
burned out, but I got a couple of her outside the hot spots. The dynamic
range of the E-M5 really helped.
Just for laughs, here is a shot in the same hall from a few years ago.
Same pianist, same 90/2 Summicron, different positions, I'm sure the
lights were aimed differently. And a camera with less dynamic range--the
Leica M8.

The E-M5 has a more advanced sensor, less image noise and a quieter
shutter. But there's nothing like a rangefinder for seeing and nailing
the exact instant you want.
