The Right Sound

on BBC Radio 3

In spite of 20th-century architectural innovation, new ideas about how we perceive sound, and recent mathematical aids to acoustic design, most of the concert halls which musicians and audiences agree have the right sound date from the 19th century. Why?
Stephen Games examines the apparent disharmonies which abound within modem concert halls and considers how the concert-goer's lot could be improved.
