The District Music Hall will be located on El Dorado High School campus in the City of Yorba Linda. The new 600-seat performance facility will serve as the main concert venue for the District and will also accommodate a variety of theatre and drama productions. The Music Hall will also be the new home for the award-winning El Dorado High School band program.
MVEI held various design workshops and charrettes with the School and District program coordinators in the early design stages, allowing the project design to evolve and provide the flexibility that was required for the diverse performance shows within the District. Accessory areas included stage preparatory areas, dressing/make-up rooms, delivery and loading access and storage spaces.
The new Music Hall is a part of a larger project that will include a Practice Gymnasium and an outdoor pedestrian plaza; this new complex will act as a link to the existing campus and an entry to the community. The design will include an exterior canopy structure serving as an outdoor extension to the lobby while being the prominent feature of the design that draws visitors to the site. The building's exterior is wrapped with a series of screen panels reflective of the essence of the musical performance within.
The new Music Hall will be an icon for the community and the exciting Music and Arts programs at the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District.
