| Hej Kjetil,
As I've stated, I agree that it's a small hall and that poses some problems for some ensembles. I do not find the sound hard in the audience seating though, might it be possible that you're thinking of the concert hall in LuleƄ?
I do recall that for your performance it was a very tight fit. A full symphonic orchestra is probably not the best match for this hall. Smaller orchestras and ensembles sound quite nice, I think.
It probably wouldn't be very wise to build a 20 000 m3 hall in the north of sweden, since the demographic base for the audience is a bit limited. Competing with the larger halls was probably not the aim for any of the three halls that was built in the north of Sweden during the first years of this century. Would be interesting to hear and see what international acousticians would have done with similar conditions! |
