Donor generosity has allowed NEC to transform a neglected recital hall in NEC's St. Botolph building into Harold Whitworth Pierce Hall: a new, state-of-the-art performance space.
Natural wood floors and punchy but functional wall graphics accentuate the positively brilliant acoustics, flexible seating layout, improved lighting, and multimedia presentation capabilities of this room.
Concertgoers will get to know this room as home to the Pierce Jazz Series—early evening sets by NEC's student jazz ensembles—as well as chamber music and solo recitals. The NEC boards and administration will use this room as NEC's first dedicated teleconferencing space.
