Starting on site at the Royal Academy of Music
Development is underway on the Aud and Kristian Gerhard Jebsen Recital Hall at the Royal Academy of Music
The first chapter in a £30 million programme renewing the Royal Academy of Music’s historic Marylebone home.
This work forms part of a three-year transformation of the Academy’s teaching, performance and collections facilities, creating spaces that better support the next generation of musicians.
The barrel-vaulted recital hall, originally designed by John McAslan in 2001, will be completely reimagined, with a renewed architectural language and a carefully recalibrated acoustic environment, aligning it with the Academy’s other public performance spaces.
Over the coming months we’ll be looking behind-the-scenes at the craftsmanship, collaboration and care involved in bringing this remarkable project to life.
