deployed in this way to reinforce sound from an orchestra intermingled with the
               listeners.


               To create the system we’ve worked closely with global Soundscape specialists
               Southby Productions, who are will be constructing one of the largest Soundscape

               installations ever built, with more than 80 speakers and a pair of powerful computer
               processors used to create the acoustic shell. The system will be operated by sound

               engineer Tim Hand, and as well as reinforcing the orchestral sound will be used to
               play electronic music by the composer Sam Swallow which has been created

               especially for the event to frame the movements of the symphony. None of us quite
               know how the experiment will work, but we can’t wait to hear the results on

               Thursday!
