MUSIC SPACE AND ARCHITECTURE

Description

The relationship between architecture and music has a long and difficult history. The subject is usually examined from the perspective of one particular discipline or the other. Music, Space and Architecture offers a multidisciplinary approach. Contributors raise the question of how does sound (and music) influence the atmosphere of a building and visa versa. What makes the perfect music hall?
