The one I was in (a regional group) was close to 200. Big difference! And
since we often performed with large orchestras on stage (plus acoustical
backdrops that ate up any leftover space) it was definitely crunch time for
the singers. It didn't help that most of my fellow choristers were unwilling
to turn sideways to make more room--they all wanted to be facing straight
ahead and were absolutely unmovable, despite pleas and even threats from the
conductor. I had to get out of there!
