Abstract:
Within an academic context, learning and practice of performance is as important as the performance itself. The Brockman Hall for Opera at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music has been designed to wrap the vocal performer with an intimate and immediate response without sacrificing envelopment achieved though reverberant energy. The result is a stage that allows the vocalist to stretch their sound to meet each of the 600 audience members while honing their skills of articulation. Orchestra musicians’ training is expanded in a pit that can support a wide repertoire from the baroque to a grand opera of 70 musicians, providing a space that allows musicians hone their skills as they accompany voice on stage.
