<< | PRIORITY FOR CHORAL & ORCHESTRAL PERFORMANCE
The platform area & choir loft in particular requires an acoustical design providing sound re-flective, and very diffusive surfaces that will "reflect" sound back to musicians, choir, and singers. This reflected sound is known as acoustic ensemble. When the ensemble is good, choir and orchestral musicians can hear them-selves and others in proper blend, loudness, and harmony. The design of floor, wall, and ceiling shapes and finishes should promote acoustical diffusion that provides abundant early reflections. This will result in the acoustical ensemble perfor-mance being sufficient. Abundant early reflections are highly desirable for choral and orchestral musical programs. Virtually all of the top rated orchestral concert halls around the world that are known for their great acoustical quality possess an abundance of early reflections. >>
