So it's not only a recording presumably, but your mics will also feed a PA?
And you will be recording this, too? Or is there a separate PA system and mic setup?

If the acoustics and the speakers are good, your MK4 should do a good job, they've been used on countless such occasions the world over. If available, I'd personally likely reach for a pair of hypercardioids, though.

Obviously, you'll be placing your mics a bit closer for PA purposes than you might do for a pure recording, so the recording may need some additional reverb in the end, depending on whether it's supposed to be published.
