The design for a multimillion-dollar concert hall to be housed in London's Barbican Centre has been unveiled.
The $373-million building will be a joint project of the Barbican, the London Symphony Orchestra and the Guildhall School of Music& Drama. It will include a 2,000-seat concert hall, bars, restaurants, and public viewing areas that look down on the stage and the city.
The Barbican is home to many top musicians and performers and has hosted performers such as pianist Wang Yuja, the Shanghai Chinese Orchestra, pianist Belle Chen, and Tangram, a band that weaves Chinese and Western classical music.
