Why would basses be put in the back of an orchestra?
Can you tell me why basses are put in the back of an orchestra?
The bass section is usually placed in the back of the orchestra because their sound is naturally more powerful, and the distance from the audience helps balance the sound more evenly. Additionally, the basses produce lower frequencies that take longer to reach the listener's ear, so positioning them in the back helps to create a more cohesive sound.
