The new Center includes a 64,000-sf addition to the existing Whitman Hall and features a 200-seat flexible stage performance space with variable acoustics; rehearsal rooms for orchestra, choral and theater; a state-of-the-art recording studio; the Pima Center for Computer Music; music studios and practice rooms; and a scene shop. A gracious lobby, envisioned as a venue not only for pre- and post-performance gatherings but also for campus-wide receptions and special events, welcomes visitors, students and staff alike.
