I had never seen nor read Orfeo so I came to it as a complete virgin. It thought it was phenomenal. The first half of the opera worked particularly well for me. We had tickets on the 5th ring and I think that for the lighting/stage design this opera has, that was possibly the best place to sit in the whole theatre; it looked even more dramatic than what it seems to look like from the concert level.
I like the Rings. Ring 3 has mybe the best combo of sight lines and acoustics in the whole house. However, I sit where they put me. Which is usually in the Orchestra.
