Explore recital halls in Washington DC

Unlike a concert, a recital is a more intimate affair. People come together to appreciate the performance of a soloist in a professional setting. Recital halls are the best places to enjoy these performances. Since they are smaller than concert halls, they tend to be more affordable and include diverse amenities. A recital hall allows guests to sit closer to the stage. The acoustics will be excellent, no matter where people are seated. And you can include a recital hall in nearly any venue. From high schools to historic theaters, rectal halls Washington, D.C. are the best venues for hosting intimate live music events!

Find Washington DC professional recital spaces

You will find recital halls inside high schools, universities, and other educational institutions. Recitals are the right format for a high school chorus or music club performance since they aren't so large and don't need as many professional amenities as a concert. Since schools don't have recitals happening several times per week, they have recital halls just waiting to be reserved. Non-educational institutions capable of hosting a performance include hotels, event centers, and other businesses with spacious rooms that can be transformed into a recital hall with a stage, microphones, and enough chairs.
Check out the Abramson Family Recital Hall at American University Washington. With seating for up to 213 guests, it's the perfect space for intimate performances, with film screening rooms, lecture venues, and other event spaces. Levine Music is another DC educational institution with a professional recital space. It boasts six campuses in the DC area, including their Lang Recital Hall, a 2,150-sq.-ft. space with room for up to 160 seated guests. You can also select from their 400-sq.-ft. Kunen Theater or one of their classroom spaces for soloists and other small-scale shows.

Recital halls with amenities in Washington DC

As important as the space itself is for a recital, don't forget about the amenities included with your reservation. Professional lighting, soundproof walls, stage access, and stage curtains will all affect how the show is received by your guests. And what about extra spaces beyond the recital hall? Changing rooms, bathrooms, lounges, rehearsal space, and makeup stations will vastly improve the comfort level of your performers. Not to mention free parking for performers and audience members. In a city as parking challenged as Washington, D.C., free parking may influence how many guests show up.
