Concert Venues
The Adam Concert Room
 The Adam Concert Room, built with generous support from the Adam Foundation,
is central to the School of Music Kelburn complex. Seating an audience of
200, it offers recording facilities of professional standard in an outstanding
acoustic. A feature is the beautiful classical organ designed and built
specially for the Adam Concert Room by the Dutch firm Reil, and installed in 1992.
The Adam Concert Room also houses two Steinway grand pianos. Adjustable
seating allows for a wide range of events to take place in traditional concert
style, or in the round.
The Conservatorium of Music Concert Hall
The Massey Conservatorium Concert Hall is an acoustically treated versatile
performance stage suitable for performances of music and drama. The Concert Hall
can accommodate up to 200 seats with a separate public and stage entrance. High
quality facilities include a lighting booth and rig, a grand Steinway and baby
grand Yamaha, sound baffles, audiovisual equipment and a recording studio.
The Hunter Council Chamber
Formerly housing the University Library then the Law Library, the Hunter Council
Chamber with its fine stained glass windows is an icon of Victoria University,
and its acoustic for music is superb. The Turnovsky Piano, a full-sized concert
grand Steinway acquired through the generosity of the Turnovsky Trust in 1999,
is permanently housed in the Hunter Council Chamber. A companion Steinway,
kindly loaned to the School of Music by New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, was acquired
for the Hunter Council Chamber in 2003.

Building at the Mt Cook campus. This venue is well equipped with audio-visual
equipment, including PC, DVD, VCR, CD, document camera, OHP, slide and video projectors,
