Ohh, I forgot, it seats 350! ASU Katzin Hall (Tempe, AZ).
This place is simply amazing. So quiet you can hear a pin drop...on the carpet. Acoustics of course are superb...ideal with a full house, but excellent with just 2 dozen people.
This is a recital hall at Arizona State University's College of Music, music majors perform as part of their major...of course. So you can hear all kinds of music, all kinds of instruments, and pretty good performances. A lot of the music selections are picked to demonstrate the performer's skills (not the same old selections you hear in concert). Oh, and they're all free.
The second photo is of a percussion recital with a BIG marimba!
Really stunning sound and I don't know how the performer can play with 2 sticks (what are they called?) in each hand. And I though piano was tough.
Reflective surfaces on stage, sound deflectors and absorbants along the side walls, reflective and infinite baffle ceiling. Serious design.
For some reason, the audience (performer's friends) always sit in the back half for brass instrument recitals. Guess why.
Now, how are you going to position your speakers? Room treatment?
