Jacobs Music Center in downtown San Diego houses the San Diego Symphony inside a 1929 Gothic Revival concert hall on Seventh Avenue that completed a $125 million renovation in September 2024. The Symphony's 82-plus full-time musicians split their season between this renovated indoor hall and The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, the organization's 10,000-capacity outdoor stage on San Diego Bay. Architecture firm HGA and acoustic consultants Akustiks redesigned the stage with a permanent orchestra enclosure, a tunable canopy of 20 custom composite FRP panels adjustable in three dimensions, and variable acoustic curtains behind decorative woven-wire screens. A new choral terrace wraps three sides of the stage, expanding capacity to 1,823 when not occupied by a chorus, and an L-Acoustics multi-zone speaker system replaced the previous audio infrastructure throughout the hall. Originally the Fox Theatre, the 1929 building retains its ornate Gothic Revival ceiling and architectural detailing through the renovation, a preservation approach that echoes the restored 1912 interiors at Spreckels Theatre on Broadway. The most demanding performances deploy the full acoustic canopy with choral terrace, live orchestra, chorus, and soloists under the new lighting and video grid for large-scale choral-symphonic works like Mahler's Symphony No. 2—the piece chosen for the hall's September 2024 rededication gala.
