Chetham’s School of Music

Chetham音乐学校是英国最大的世界级音乐学校。现状的中世纪建筑是英格兰第一个公共图书馆，用作学校以后，已经不对外开放。这个音乐学校发展很快，现状难以满足教学需求。所以曼彻斯特的Stephenson ISA建筑事务所为这个学校设计了一个现代建筑方案，为学生创造了一个独特的音乐学习场所。这个地块比维多利亚车站高将近六米，设计利用这个高差，来塑造建筑的多样性。表演大厅和相关房间都在地下，上面是音乐教室、宿舍等。建筑主入口、门厅、和演出区都在一层，有一座天桥方便工作人员和学生来往于新校舍和老校区之间。这个建筑是一件从旁边的中世纪建筑脱胎而出的雕塑品，建筑形态模拟了乐器的流动形式。由于位于市中心，建筑内部的声学要求非常高，所以音乐教室和演出场所是一个个漂浮的盒子，演出大厅有完整独立的内部结构。

Chetham’s School of Music is the largest world－class music school in the UK and is unique to the region. The existing medieval building contains the first public library in England and is currently not readily accessible to the public. The musical heart of the education facility is contained within a container which is no longer fit to serve its purpose， as the institution has outgrown its current building provision for teaching and learning through its increased success and profile. The development by Manchester-based Stephenson ISA Architecture Studio creates a unique contemporary plan for the musical and academic teaching facilities， providing a state-of-the-art environment which will be a fitting platform for the students. The site varies in elevation by approximately six meters from the bottom of walkers croft to Victoria Station approach. The proposal uses the height difference as a datum to reinforce the diversity of the structure’s programme. The performance spaces and their associated service rooms are located below the surface - the music and academic classroom accommodations are placed above. The main public entrance， foyer and ensemble areas are located on the surface. A new bridge link allows daily secure access for the staff and pupils from the existing school campus to the south. The building is conceived as a carved solid， rising from the south adjacent the grade 1 medieval building， to a fulcrum above the main entrance to the north. The architectural form reflects the fluid forms of musical instruments and the island nature of the site. The elevations are expressed horizontally and are influenced by the musical stave and pianola. Due to the city centre location and the sensitive acoustic requirements of the music teaching and performance spaces most of the internal rooms are independent floating boxes. The concert hall has a complete independent internal structure floating on springs.
