Reply to comment by Northern64 in Eli5: When listening to music with headphones, how are some sounds only on the left or the right earphone? by JustTransportation51
Building on this, at a live concert, sounds arrive from different directions.
Violins are usually on the (audience's) left, cellos on the right. Singers are often arranged from left to right from high voices to low.
In performances of a particular work, I'm used to hearing the trumpet solo from the right, but in two performances this year it (and the drums) came from the left.
