The Bach Double.
In this dimly lit interior, the sun illuminated the back of the hall as well as glanced off the tops of the performers from time to time. The cams used were G7s (center and left) and ax100 (right). The G7s held up marginally better in the dim light.
Awesome performance from the soloists.

Here's an excerpt from the Cello Concerto in A Minor, Wq. 170, performed on original instruments.
