“I spent several days in the Esplanade concert hall in Singapore after it was completed, listening to our new pipe organ. From my personal view as an organ builder, the acoustics are perfect. What really impresses me about the acoustics is that they have clarity and reverberance at the same time --- an almost unique combination in the world of concert hall acoustics. With the chamber doors closed, the hall is very resonant, has good clarity and a very even acoustic at all frequencies. With these doors fully open, the hall gains a wonderful cathedral-like sound, with all the voices of the organ being beautifully understood, still with excellent clarity. You know that I love Symphony Hall in Birmingham, but the new Esplanade hall has more resonance. This Singapore hall will very soon be recognized as one of the best contemporary concert halls in the world. The Artec acoustics are extraordinary --- incredible.”
