I concur entirely with Lloyd's comments. He provides a musician's perspective, and I've learned over the years that musicians who know how to record sound are to be listented to!

You should observe his recommendation about height. When writing I imagined a larger group.

I also prefer a ribbon main mic pair in Blumlein (AEA R88 is my favorite). His comments about the Schoeps sound mirror my own experience, though I use them mostly for spot duty. I really like the 41 for soloists and they like the results.
