Talking Recording Bansuri (indian flute) Sunday

This sunday I am recording Deepak Ram, a famous bansuri player. Have any of you worked with this instrument/person? Any mic/placement recomendations? I'm going to try a Lawson MP47 about 3 feet away. He will be playing live in the same room with a Japenese shamisen which can be a very loud instrument. I've recorded the shamisen several times and have gotten greaet tones however I've never worked with a bansuri. I will probablly have them faceing eachother in the room (which is about 20x24x14, fairly live). I don't really want isolation but just the ability to bring one or the other up in the mix. Any suggestions on how to get a good stereo recording of the bansuri if I decide to go that way?

thx
