Audience noise in concert halls during musical performances.
Noise generated by the audience during musical performances is audible and sometimes disturbing. In this study, an attempt to estimate such audience noise was carried out. From the recordings of performances in five performance spaces (four concert halls and one opera house), probability density functions of the sound pressure levels were obtained in octave bands, which were fitted with three G...
متن کاملConcert halls with strong lateral reflections enhance musical dynamics.
One of the most thrilling cultural experiences is to hear live symphony-orchestra music build up from a whispering passage to a monumental fortissimo. The impact of such a crescendo has been thought to depend only on the musicians' skill, but here we show that interactions between the concert-hall acoustics and listeners' hearing also play a major role in musical dynamics. These interactions co...
متن کاملFrom Concert Halls to Noise Barriers: Attenuation from Interference Gratings
The seat dip effect is a low-frequency attenuation affecting sound travelling at grazing incidence over seating in auditoria. It is caused by scattered sound from the seats interfering with sound travelling directly from the source on the stage. In outdoor noise control, the simple single noise barrier gives good attenuation at high frequencies, but is limited by diffraction at low frequencies....
متن کاملArchitectural Acoustics: Acoustics of Concert Halls II
Some high-resolution direction-of-arrival DOA estimation methods, such as the MUSIC method, have been developed based on vectorsensor array. However, these high-resolution methods suffer from serious drawbacks. Indeed, they are not able to estimate coherent signals and sensitive to calibration errors. Mainly to overcome these limitations and in particular to satisfy practical engineering applic...
متن کاملArchitectural shape and early acoustic efficiency in concert halls (L).
Supplying sufficient early reflections to audience members is an important prerequisite to good acoustic quality in performing arts spaces. However, the relationship between the geometry of a room and its acoustic efficiency in terms of early energy has rarely been investigated using basic geometrical principles. The present study demonstrates the possibility of predicting the average value of ...
