Progress Report: Tehran Music Hall Acoustics

With most of the timber panels installed, the first acoustic tests in the main auditorium have taken place.

Testing with musicians

Alongside technical reverberation-time measurements, we invited an ensemble of Persian instruments to play in the hall. Their feedback on hearing one another on stage was invaluable for final tuning.

Next steps

Based on the results, several panels above the stage will be re-angled, and adjustable absorbent curtains will be added for spoken-word events.

Interior works are expected to finish by the end of winter.
