Where: Studio A

Merriam Music’s recently opened Studio A is a marvel of today’s latest acoustic, lighting, and sound technologies. One of the most advanced facilities of its kind, Studio A was designed by Martin Piltchner to be a multi-function room capable of acting as a broadcast, studio recording, or live recital room.  With comfortable seating up to 100 people, it creates a perfect opportunity for artists to capture live recordings.  For the listening audience, you won’t find a more intimate, acoustically and visually more appealing room in which to enjoy live music.
