Symfonisk Sal, Musikhuset Aarhus, Aarhus, Denmark

This 1200-seat purpose built concert hall, part of a significant addition to the existing Musikhuset Aarhus, will be the home of the Aarhus Symfoniorkester. This 72-person permanent ensemble serves the Aarhus community with over 60 symphonic performances each season, as well as collaborations with the Den Jyske Opera company.

The hall features audience seating on 3 levels and a variety of signature adjustable acoustics elements including a large three-piece motorized canopy (or reflector) system and a system of sound absorptive panels that can be deployed for performances featuring amplified sound, or for rehearsals. These systems will be used to shape the acoustics environment to meet the needs of different types of performances taking place in the hall.

Artec provided Design and Planning services covering Auditorium Design, (basic design and architectural acoustics) as part of the COWI A/S team under A. Enggaard A/S. The client acoustics advisor was Anders Christian Gade. The architect for the facility was Klaus Toustrup of C. F. Møller of Aarhus, Denmark.
