DUNCAN RECITAL
HALL
 Duncan
Recital Hall easily accommodates most all student and faculty
recitals, lecture recitals, guest speakers, and masterclasses.
Duncan Recital Hall, located inside Alice Pratt Brown Hall, is the busiest and
most sought-after venue at the Shepherd School. Its classical proportions, inspired
by Stude Concert Hall but on a smaller scale, give it excellent acoustics for
solo recitals and chamber music concerts.
Shepherd School students perform approximately 250 free recitals
here each academic year. Other major local performing-arts organizations
present
chamber music concerts and lectures.
Before the opening of Alice Pratt Brown Hall in 1991, most student recitals
were held on campus at the T.W. Bonner Nuclear Laboratories Building. One
of the original Shepherd School faculty members, Professor of Music Anne
Schnoebelen recalls, "We used to joke that we didn't have to turn on the
lights because everybody would just glow in the dark." You are sure to enjoy
any performance in Duncan Recital Hall. Many enthusiastic classical-music
devotees attend several recitals per week, drawn by the informal atmosphere,
the collegial relations of the members of Rice community, and the free admission
for most events.
