Famed architect Zaha Hadid has designed the JS Bach Chamber Music Hall which will be hosted by the Manchester Art Gallery.
The Music Hall will house live performances in honour of the legendary composer. A beautiful streamer-inspired fabric wraps around the steel structure to appropriate enclose the stage and the audience while leaving room for entrance and exits. The sound is made beautiful by clear acrylic panels above the stage.
The whole was designed for the Manchester International Festival that will go on until July 18th, 2009.
