Best Value Tickets (Under $190)
- 3rd Tier Center DD/CC Rows ($174-$189) - Excellent elevated view with perfect acoustics for the price. Rows DD offer slightly better angles than CC.

Sweet Spot Seating (Best Balance of Price & Experience)
- Orchestra 3 Center BB Row ($216) - Mid-orchestra position with ideal sound projection and clear stage views.
- Second Tier Center EE Row ($238-$245) - Elevated but not too distant, perfect for watching the full orchestra's movements.

Higher Tier Options (Premium Acoustics)
- First Tier Center BB-EE Rows ($319-$331) - The "golden mean" of concert halls - close enough to see facial expressions while maintaining perfect sound blend.

- Orchestra Center Rows D-E ($480-$505) - Reference-standard seats for absolute purists, especially for Stravinsky's complex textures.
View Considerations

- For Stravinsky: Second Tier provides the best overall perspective for large orchestral forces.
- Conductor Watching: Orchestra 2 Right seats offer excellent views of Dudamel's dynamic conducting style.
