Abstract
The visual aspect has become much more important in concert hall design. The New World Symphony opened a new concert hall in Miami in early 2011, expressing a multimedia visual concept where five large walls of the auditorium are used as screens for a multitude of projectors. A flexible layout for both musicians and the audience is enabled by a movable stage and audience areas. Musicians located away from Miami Beach collaborate with resident musicians through the use of the high-speed Internet2 network. Concerts in the Performance Hall are also served simultaneously to an audience outside the building in the adjacent city park with high-definition audio and video. Experimental collaboration between music and visual images is a key function of the building. The acoustics and acoustical design of this “visual” concert hall are discussed.
