“One of the best acoustics in the world of a newly-built theater.”
These were the words that Maestro Daniel Barenboim said following the concert of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra at Teatro Mayor in Bogotá that he conducted just after its opening in 2010.
We created SoundArts to provide you with the best acoustical consulting in a studio setting; to help you design spaces that impress the most demanding conductors, performers and audience members. Our goal is that Maestro Barenboim’s quote belongs to your project as well.
You will have our undivided attention in our studio, working directly with one of us from the initiation of the project through successful construction and opening. We will draw on other consultants as needed for feasibility studies, cost estimating, marketing studies and theater consulting, while overseeing every important detail.
Our team combines architects, consultants, musicians and sound engineers which bring complementary perspectives and develop innovative and multifaceted approaches to all the exciting challenges that we face. We are passionate about our work.
At SoundArts we also believe that great projects come from great partnerships.
Our team has been extremely fortunate to partner with amazing clients, consultants and professionals in a wide variety of projects that have enriched us and have helped us better understand the complexities and nuances of acoustics and venue design. We continue to work with others that share our passion and gain experience that can enrich our projects.
We always begin with a dialog to better understand your goals and aspirations, cost concerns, and project timeline. We will ask questions and discuss key issues that you will encounter along the way and better prepare you for the decisions you have to make based on our wide variety of project experience.
Give us a call and tell us about what you’d like to accomplish. Let’s see how we can make it happen! — Cristian and Jaume
