Re: All you acousticians out there...

I have a similar background to David, I did Masters work in woodwind acoustics.

As the project architect, you should determine the desires of both the music dept adminstration and the musicians. David is correct that such a room would be acoustically dead. This may be desirable to the music dept administration. I would like to point out that a typical 8' x 8' practice room with acoustic wall panels would feel claustrophobic to many of the musicians. Personally, I would like a more reflective room.

The link to the LA Philharmonic shows the need for a mixture of practice room types. Perhaps a combination of acoustically dead, reflective rooms and adjustable rooms would be desirable.
