Sakıp Sabancı Museum - The Seed Multi-Purpose Hall

Everything is planned perfectly. This venue has all the acoustical qualities for small & mid-size performances.

Serdar Yalçın (İstanbul State Ballet & Orchestra – Chief Conductor);

Acoustically everything is well designed. There is no 90 degrees angle, the sound bounces off the wood. Its acoustic feature is very suitable for performances such as choir, chamber music and recitals. It is especially suitable for chamber music. Because even whispers are heard by the audience. It is important that the sound is evenly distributed to every corner of the hall. Consequently, the acoustics of this hall for small-medium sized performances have all the required qualities.

Seda Subaşı (Violin Artist, Concertmaster of Istanbul State Opera and Ballet Orchestra, 2nd Violin Group Conductor in Akbank Chamber Orchestra);

“The Seed has acoustics suitable for small ensemble classical music. Since the same volume is heard from all parts of the hall (including on stage), the performer can better control his/her sound. This acoustic property provides great comfort in making nuances. The reflection of this to the listener in the same way supports the communication between the artist and the listener. So, it creates a warm atmosphere.”
