“great new performace space for Melbourne”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 17, 2012

The cultural capital of Australia has done it again. Acoustically excellent and centrally located, a performance at the Melbourne Recital Centre should be on your to do list

“We have become addicted to the Recital Centre!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 16, 2012

Acoustics are so good at the Melbourne recital that my partner and I have become almost compelled to go to concerts there. In the past ten months we attended 18 concerts - some in the larger area, the Dame Elizabeth Auditorium, and others in the Salon, which seats about 150 people. Both have excellent sound qualities.

Many of the concerts were part of the 'Local Heroes' program, which (surprise, surprise!) presents the works of Victorian based ensembles. Prices for these concerts are affordable at $35 /$25 per person, and the artists are remarkably good.

The diversity of the program caters for all tastes in music. We are so lucky to have the Melbourne Recital Centre in our lovely city.
