You might try to use both the SE and ribbon on the piano in MS, that way youve got 1 good stereo spot instead of 2 mono spots, which typically don't blend well for this type of recording.

ORTF will work well as your main pickup and maximize the room a bit more than an AB spaced pair would, so you really shoyldnt need much in the way of an ambience mic
