Voxman Music Building, Music education building at University of Iowa, Iowa City, United States
The Voxman Music Building is a six-story structure at the University of Iowa housing multiple performance venues of different sizes. It contains classrooms, teaching studios, faculty offices, and a comprehensive music library serving students and teachers.
The original music building was destroyed by flooding in 2008, prompting construction of a new facility. The completed structure opened in 2016 and restored the music program's home on campus.
The building honors Himie Voxman, a legendary music teacher whose vision shaped how students here learn and perform for generations. His legacy remains part of the daily experience for everyone who walks through these halls.
The complex contains multiple performance spaces that you can encounter while exploring the building. You may hear music and orchestral rehearsals coming from different rooms throughout the structure.
The main concert hall houses an intricate organ with thousands of individual pipes. The ceiling above the performance space is specially designed to manage sound and light in controlled ways.
