The paper concerns the influence of the stage layout on the acoustic properties of the auditorium of the Grand Theatre in Poznan. An experimental investigation and a numerical calculation were carried out. During the experimental investigation three cases were analyzed. Firstly, the stage was prepared for a concert (acoustical shell), secondly in had sets for the "Wedding of Figaro", and thirdly it was empty. The reverberation time and the acoustic pressure distribution were analyzed. The research was done by the interrupted noise method and by the true impulsive sources (pistol shots). The modified ray method was used in numerical calculations of acoustic field parameters. It turned out that the light weight structures (materials used in construction of stage sets and acoustical shell) had only decorative function and their influence on the acoustics of the auditorium opera theatre is small. Moreover, the investigation proved that the distribution of the sound pressure level in the auditorium is asymmetrical. It is because of the geometrical asymmetry of the stage (only one side wing). An acoustical correction of the stage was suggested i.e. applying of slided acoustics walls to separate the stage from the background and the side wing. |
