Acoustic Shell Optimization in Opera Houses for Concert Halls by Umberto Derme, Silvana Sukaj, Amelia Trematerra

“…Opera houses are often used as concert halls with the use of a temporary acoustic shell set on stage. In most cases, the shell shape and its position in the fly tower are decided by theatre technicians, after evaluating the concert programme and considering the conductor and the musicians’ requests, without being supported by an acoustic analysis. …”
