After many years, the university has its own building for music, which is designed not only for teaching and practice, but for live concerts as well. Outwardly, the new music theatre is a modest, compact structure enclosed entirely in glass and stainless-steel mesh. The reflection of daylight prevents views into the building. When the structure is illuminated at night, however, its internal life is revealed and becomes part of the public space. On arrival, visitors are confronted with a striking staircase that winds up through the threestorey foyer in a sweeping curve, allowing glimpses of the individual floors.
