Newly built concert halls draw the attention of both the wider lay but also specialised public. A concert hall is inserted into external factors: into the already existing architecture of the city, into the established way of non/functional urban planning and into the existing traditions of the inhabitants of the city. The hall responds to these factors, for example, by the actual architecture – harmonic or confrontational. Particularly important factors, if not defining, are a positive economic situation and political support. The authors divides the internal factors into more technical hard aspects (acoustics, capacity, digitalization…) and soft ones, influenced by human factors which evolve over time (personnel staffing particularly in management positions, dramaturgy, marketing, work with the public, production operations…).
