The wooden curtain above the choir position, connected to the ceiling, not only reflects sound, but also shields the performance lights and technical bridge, which is the essence of the decoration of the entire performance hall.
The performance hall will be used by the Royal Academy of Music Symphony Orchestra, the Grenoble School, and the Royal School of Music. It will also be used as a venue for lectures, rehearsals, and festive events at the Royal Academy of Music. In addition, it can be rented for jazz and comedy festivals, seminars, company or community events, etc.
