The Eugene McDermott Concert Hall at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center opened in September of 1989.

The 2062-seat Eugene McDermott Concert Hall serves as the home of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and is considered one of the premiere contemporary concert halls of the world. Seating in the hall is arranged on three balcony levels with seating extending along the sides of the auditorium. The acoustical design of the hall combines the best characteristics of a "shoebox" hall with more modern features - including signature adjustable acoustics elements designed by Artec. An organ for the hall was built by C.B. Fisk, Inc. of Gloucester, Massachusetts and inaugurated in September 1992.

The concert hall is one of the keystones in a citizen-backed "cultural revolution" that has been taking place in Dallas since the mid-1970s. Located in the new Dallas Arts District, the Meyerson Symphony Center is close to the Dallas Museum of Arts and the Arts Magnet High School. The expansive lobbies and concert hall setting can accommodate a variety of functions including meetings and seminars, awards programs, trade shows & exhibits, weddings or graduations, seated banquets, receptions, and photo/film shoots. The 213,000 square foot center includes a restaurant and other public spaces, support facilities for the musicians, meeting rooms, and office space.

Artec provided Design and Planning services covering Pre-Design Phase services, Auditorium Design, Facility Planning, Specialized Performance Equipment Systems Design, and Noise & Vibration Control consulting services for the center. I.M. Pei and Partners were the architects.
