Description

"This time-lapse highlights the complex assembly and installation of the Southam Hall orchestra shell. It is, without a doubt, the shining star of the National Arts Centre’s Production Renewal Project.

Designed by Diamond Schmitt Architects, Fisher Dachs Associates, Threshhold Acoustics and Engineering Harmonics, and manufactured by Wenger & JR Clancy, the orchestra shell took more than 18 months to design and manufacture. Installation and assembly of the shell took three months and was completed by the NAC’s Production team in consultation with Wenger & JR Clancy."

"Cette vidéo en accéléré met en évidence le montage et l’installation complexes de la coquille de l’orchestre de la salle Southam. C’est, sans aucun doute, la partie la plus marquante du projet de renouvellement de la production du Centre national des Arts.

La conque a été conçue par un groupe formé de la firme canadienne Diamond Schmitt Architects, de Fisher Dachs Associates, de Threshhold Acoustics et d’Engineering Harmonics, puis fabriquée par Wenger & JR Clancy. Sa conception et sa fabrication ont nécessité plus de 18 mois de travail. Par la suite, son installation et son assemblage ont été réalisés par l’équipe de production du CNA en consultation avec Wenger & JR Clancy, sur une période de trois mois."
