Gala Opening Concert
Warwick's Revived Butterworth Hall, Wednesday 7th October 2009 - 8pm
14 October 2009- Warwick Arts Centre celebrated the eagerly awaited reopening of Butterworth Hall with a special gala performance by the Philharmonia Orchestra, led by renowned conductor, Esa-Pekka Salonen, next month.
ADP undertook this exciting redevelopment of Butterworth Hall, an important concert facility for the University of Wariwck and the Midlands area. The project included the major refurbishment of the 1970s main concert hall as well as a reorganisation and extension of the backstage facilities. Together with the provision of a new full orchestral rehearsal room and new dressing room facilities, Butterworth Hall has been transformed to meet the very highest standards of performing arts facilities provision.
The new extended facilities were arranged to provide a dramatic new backdrop to the existing entrance and signify the redevelopment of the concert hall, as well as create a new significant performance space in its own right within the arts complex.
Reviewed by MADE (the Midlands Regional Architectural Review Panel), the scheme was praised for “a thoroughness of thought, and the Panel applauds the quality of design and the architecture.”
