natural acoustic system : the project

THE PROJECT

The success of an Acoustic Shell for Orchestra depends on the skilful mix of many important factors and variables: from the correct positioning of the wooden elements which have different mass, dimensions and geometries; from the volume of the space enclosed in the Acoustic Shell on the stage and from the interaction with the shell below; from the distance and precise adjustment between:

o the ceiling-panels and the sound source,
o between the three side walls,
o between the back wall and the conductor's podium, and so forth ...

This brief description of just a few of the main variables, indispensable in the design phase, gives an indication of just how complex it is to tune such a sophisticated Instrument. Naturally, the material used for construction of a normal Acoustic Shell for Orchestra is mainly the fireproof wood.
For the structure illustrated here, the pre-selected wood is plywood, entirely special even in its make up, completely fireproof.

This Acoustic Shell for Orchestra was conceived with highly modular characteristics, is destined to voice, in optimum conditions, any environment which is acoustically lacking for Symphony or Chamber Music performances. Its specifications, together with great flexibility, make it possible to take maximum advantage of every note from the sound response
