DUNEDIN TOWN HALL
Sir~In Dr. Findlay’s interesting article in the current number of The Listener dealing with the acoustic properties of the Town Halls in Wellington and Dunedin, he speculates as to why the acoustics are so much better in the Dunedin Town Halli and says-"It may. be the much higher ceiling or it may be largely luck." As architects for the Dunedin Town Hall, designed and completed almost 20 years ago, we would like Dr. Findlay to know that the satisfactory results acoustically are not just due to luck but to careful design. The interior was designed in conformity with the principles of satisfactory acoustics asset out by such authorities of that time as Professor Sabine--MANDENO, FRASER AND GALBRAITH (Dunedin).
