My wife and I recently attended a performance from the Music of the Baroque series. It was a wonderful to hear Haydn & Mozart played by such an accomplished and talented group, Allison Balsom was phenomenal! (I only wish she could've played a little longer).

My criticism is that the balcony seats are way too close to each other from front to back. I'm 6' and I had almost no leg room, it was worse than being in an airplane! Needless to say, I became very uncomfortable by the end of a two-hour concert.

One bit if advice, do NOT forget to get your parking ticket validated at the theater if you drive there and park in the Millennium Park garage (huge cost difference!). Prolly better to take public transportation there anyway...
