TABLE OF CONTENTS MORTON H. MEYERSON SYMPHONY CENTER

MOST ICONIC BUILDING IN DALLAS Mort on H . Meyers on S ymp hony Cent er Designed by I.M. Pei and internationally renowned acoustician Russell Johnson.

CE LE BRATING 30 Y E A RS Its sweeping glass and arching marble have cut across the Dallas skyline since 1989. The monumental Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center is one of Dallas’s most iconic buildings, standing as a cornerstone of the Dallas Arts District. It is recognized as one of the world’s finest concert halls. The Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center was created to offer the citizens of Dallas a major facility for music and cultural activities and to meet the Dallas Symphony Orchestra’s need for a new home. Following a historic 1979 bond election that set the stage for the creation of the Dallas Arts District, community leaders and the Dallas Symphony Association began drafting plans to build a symphony center in downtown Dallas. The location chosen was at the corner of Flora Street and Pearl Street, the site of a processing plant of Borden Dairy, who generously donated the land. The vision, passion and dedication of Morton H. Meyerson led the charge to make these dreams a reality. He knew that Dallas had an opportunity to create something truly extraordinary for the DSO, and this was the chance to do it. Meyerson created an Architect Selection Committee, headed by Stanley Marcus, and an Acoustician Selection Committee, led by Eugene Bonelli. Marcus’s group chose architect I.M. Pei in 1980 to design the building. Pei’s impact on the Dallas skyline could already be seen in his rocket-shaped tower at Fountain Place and in Dallas’s City Hall. Russell Johnson’s ARTEC Consultants was awarded the commission to create the sound properties inside the concert hall. The Meyerson Symphony Center was opened to the public on September 6, 1989; opening events included two weeks of concerts by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and other resident performing ensembles. The response to the newly built symphony center was overwhelmingly positive. The New York Times raved “the result is one of the handsomest room in which to hear music anywhere” (September 8, 1989).

Now in its 30th year, the Eugene McDermott Concert Hall continues to receive wide praise for its warm, inviting sound and the timeless building design. In 2016, Business Insider named the Meyerson one of the “10 Best-Sounding Concert Halls in the World.” In 2018, the Dallas Chapter of the American Institute of Architects granted the hall a 25 Year Award for enduring design and excellence in Dallas. The Meyerson’s magnificence has endured, remaining “the crown jewel of the Dallas Arts District” (D Magazine). “It is an honor to celebrate 30 years of this great symphony hall,” said Morton H. Meyerson. “When we began our plans for the building, we wanted it to stand the test of time. We settled for nothing less than greatness in acoustics and architecture. As it stands on Flora Street, now a pillar of the thriving Dallas Arts District, I am proud of the work that was done and of the foresight of the building committee, donors, supporters and citizens of Dallas over 30 years ago. The Meyerson Symphony Center is an award-winning building and continues to be heralded as one of the best concert halls in the world, but it is its role as home to some of Dallas’s best ensembles, community organizations, celebrations and events that makes it worthy of its highest praise.”

SPECIAL FEATURES The centerpiece of the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center is the Eugene McDermott Concert Hall, an intimate, acoustically superior performance space. Every detail of the concert hall was designed to achieve the highest acoustical quality, with special

elements of the design providing the capability of tailoring the acoustical environment to the performance.

Reverb doors may be opened to increase the reverberation decay time or closed to reduce the reverberation. • Sound absorbing acoustic curtains are also available within the reverberation chamber and throughout the concert hall on three levels to achieve the desired articulation of sound.

• There is no fly or wing space. • Facility does not have curtains, legs, borders or other hanging soft goods. • There are four (4) levels of orchestra risers on the stage, which may be removed and stored offstage depending on building schedule. • Please note that removal of all risers to create a flat floor may

LOADING / UNLOADING LOA D I N G D O C K The Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center address is 2301 Flora Street, Dallas, TX 75201. This is the address for the front door of the building, not of the loading dock. The loading dock is located off the Woodall Rodgers Freeway service road just east of the Pearl Street intersection. The dock is located UNDER the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center. The ramp to the dock goes straight down from the Woodall Rodgers access road to underneath the Meyerson Symphony Center. There is a guard hut at the bottom of the ramp and all drivers must check in with security before proceeding to the dock. The guard hut is on wheels and will be moved out of the way for truck access. Please wait for the guard hut to be moved and electrical power line to be disconnected before driving into the dock. THE LOADING DOCK IS NOT AT STREET LEVEL. IF YOU UNLOAD AT A STREET LEVEL DOCK, YOU ARE AT THE WRONG VENUE. Dock height is (4) four feet and can accommodate (2) semi-trailers. Dock levelers are installed that can lower the dock height to 3’ 5” high. Please re-set the dock leveler after each use. Damages from driving away with the leveler deployed is the responsibility of the Client

Pallet jacks, hand trucks, and flatbed carts are available for use on premises, subject to availability. A fork lift is not available. The loading dock is a shared space. Tractor trailers that will be in the dock overnight must be pre-approved by Technical Director. NOTE TO TRUCK DRIVERS: All tractor trailer rigs over 42’ in length MUST back down the ramp into the dock as there is NOT room to maneuver at the bottom of the ramp if attempting to enter cab first. Ramp entrance measures 24’-6” x 14’-2” high. A typical 13’ 6” truck will clear without any problems.

LOADING AREAS (cont.) S T R E E T ACC E S S

If unloading a trailer pulled behind a non-dock height vehicle (e.g. bus or motor coach), trailer must be unloaded at ground level IN FRONT of the Facility at 2301 Flora Street. Please notify the Technical Director in advance of this need. NOTE TO BUS / MOTOR COACH DRIVERS: Do not attempt to drive a bus into the loading dock area. The ramp is steep and attempting to do so may result in damage to the vehicle at the bottom of the ramp. Busy streets surrounding the Meyerson Symphony Center make bus parking difficult and therefore it is critical that all bus parking be pre-arranged with the Facility Technical Director.

F R E I G H T E L E VATO R

The freight elevator is approximately (50) fifty feet from the dock. The elevator travels between the dock level and the stage level only. At stage level, elevator access is backstage right. Freight elevator measures 18’ x 11’ x 9’ 5” high. Clearance inside elevator is 9’ 6”. Capacity is 10,000 lbs.
