Abstract
The acoustic design of a 1300-seat multi-purpose concert hall is described and the uncertainties, practical difficulties and compromises inherent in orthodox practice are mentioned. Listeners' and performers' comments during the first six months of use are compared with the results of extensive objective measurements made in the completed hall. Major features of the design are the use of bleacher retractable seating, a terrace on three sides of the orchestra, exposed roof structure and ventilation trunking and novel techniques to provide good acoustic conditions for the performers.
