If you want to model the the ambient reflections with that type of physical accuracy, you would probably save yourself a lot of trouble by finding an actual performance venue that you want to model after, and get several stereo impulse response samples from the desired listening location, with the sources coming from the different locations on stage that you are wanting to use as instrument sources.
