A major contribution to the history of American theatre, this book records in one volume all available data about theatres built in this country before 1915. The first comprehensive reference work of its kind, the Directory of Historic American Theatres identifies 886 theatres ranging from forgotten second-floor opera houses to elaborate performance centers still in use today. The data collected here is based on exhaustive questionnaire and follow-up mailings to historical societies, libraries, theatres, and individuals involved in historic preservation.

"In an age of fast-paced mass media and an enormous choice of home entertainment, it comes as a surprise to discover just how much creative energy and money is being directed towards new space for live performance at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Performing Architecture explores fifty of the world's finest twenty-first-century venues for live performance, as well as earlier buildings that have been recently refurbished or transformed, and shows that the buildings are as much the stars as those performing within them."--BOOK JACKET.

This illustrated guide to 100 of the world's most important concert halls and opera houses examines their architecture and engineering and discusses their acoustical quality as judged by conductors and music critics. The descriptions and photographs will serve as a valuable guide for today's peripatetic performers and music lovers. With technical discussions relegated to appendices, the book can be read with pleasure by anyone interested in musical performance. The photographs (specially commissioned for this book) and architectural drawings (all to the same scale) together with modern acoustical data on each of the halls provide a rich and unmatched resource on the design of halls for presenting musical performances. Together with the technical appendices, the data and drawings will serve as an invaluable reference for architects and engineers involved in the design of spaces for the performance of music.
