✦ Synopsis

A BS TRA CT Room acoustical and architectural data from 32 concert halls have been subjected to statistical analyses in order to look for relationships between the position averaged acoustical data and various design variables. It is found that volume and the classical room acoustic parameter~reverberation time are the main factors governing the behaviour of the newer and more sophisticated measures of level, reverberance and clarity. However. geometrical factors can also have a major it~uence on clarity and--in particular--on spaciousness and on the conditions for musicians on the orchestra platform. The results point towards the possibility o f forming empirical, linear regression fornzulae. which can predict the values of the newer parameters in halls with given R T and geometry.
