Pease Auditorium, Concert hall at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, United States.
Pease Auditorium is a concert hall at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti designed in neoclassical style. The building holds approximately 1500 seats and serves mainly as a performance space for the Department of Music and Dance.
The building was completed in 1915 and named after Frederic H. Pease, a music professor who directed the Conservatory. Its architecture reflects the importance of music education at the university during that era.
The organ here comes from the 1960s and shapes the musical life at the university. It enables classical music performances throughout the academic year.
The building has a modern ventilation system that completely refreshes the air every ten minutes. This keeps conditions comfortable during long performances.
The auditorium contains stained glass windows that originally came from St. Luke's Episcopal Church and were moved here in 2015. These windows bring distinctive light into the interior and connect two separate buildings.
