Akustiks provided the acoustical and audio video design for the renewal of Cincinnati’s glorious 1878 red brick Music Hall. A primary part of the renovation included a much needed acoustic upgrade, in part accomplished by a reduction in the seating capacity from 3,417 to 2,282 seats for the Cincinnati Symphony and to 2,524 when other resident companies, including the Cincinnati Opera, the Cincinnati Ballet and the Cincinnati May Festival, perform.
