The Community Music Center Mission District Branch Concert Hall is available for rent to the public for music-related concerts and events, rehearsals, and sound recording. Renovated in 2006, the concert hall is wheelchair accessible and opens onto the courtyard of an Italianate Victorian house dating back to the 1880s. There is a balcony at the rear of the hall, where there is also a sound recording booth. The auditorium seats roughly 130.
DESCRIPTION
Acoustically excellent, the concert hall houses a Steinway D grand piano on stage and a Steinway Duo Art piano on the floor. The proscenium stage features a professional-quality lighting system with dimmer board. The rental fee includes a concert manager to open and close the auditorium, handle hall and stage setup, and distribute programs. The fee also includes three hours of rehearsal time prior to the concert date.
CONVENIENCES
There are two restrooms adjacent to the concert hall stage and one wheelchair-accessible restroom adjacent to the courtyard. The building also houses a green room which includes a sink, refrigerator and small electric stove. There are eight 3' x 6' conference tables, each seating six to eight.
TICKET PRICES
Because Community Music Center is dedicated to promoting the accessibility of music, admission charged by professional performers may be no more than $15 for adults and $10 for seniors and students. Concerts by nonprofessionals must be free of charge, except in the event of benefit concerts, which are subject to the approval of Community Music Center's Executive Director.
