SOUND CHECKShould you bring your own sound reinforcement in, it is crucial to pay particular attention to the Balcony and Mezzanine during sound check. In order to reach optimal sound in Symphony Hall, a technician should be in the upper level during sound check to ensure that all levels will be satisfactory to the audience. Please know that it is strongly recommended to mix from the Front of House position.
