<br/><br/> Contemporary concert halls are no longer the stuffy cultural institutions of the past. Reaching out to new and diverse audiences, these buildings are turning themselves inside out, spilling out into the urban fabric. Fulfilling more functions than ever before, the concert halls featured in these videos — Harpa in Reykjavik, Wroclaw’s National Forum of Music and the Philharmonie de Paris — are at the forefront of new technologies and materials. In doing so, they are also redefining the architecture of performance and the musical experience.
