Music plays a prominent role within the culture of Canmore. This project will not only offer several public environments for music performance but also provide a place that builds upon the already prominent civic and cultural strengths within the town. This is an experiential architecture that emotionally engages the listener as well as the performer. A gradient of spatial conditions charges the procession through the project while also providing a full range of acoustic experiences. Through architecture, it also connects the town to its surrounding mountainous landscape.enBOW VALLEY CENTRE FOR MUSIC
