Egner Hall

The Egner Hall Renovation Project upgraded the Glee Club’s rehearsal space into a state-of-the-art permanent home base for the club. A digital acoustic system significantly improved practice conditions to expedite learning, improve team skills, and reinforce individual technique.

Installing recording capability in the Glee Club room increased public outreach through more frequent recording and has enabled them to capture organic, acoustic performance. An audio-visual installation connects with the West Point Band audio tech studio, allowing for interaction with guest artists and presenters, commissioned composers, and viewing performances of other groups.

Centralized HVAC provides consistent temperature and relative humidity for the care of equipment, library, and archives, as well as Cadets and staff at work! Facility improvements benefit other performing Cadet Support Clubs, such as the Spirit Band, String Ensemble, and Rock Band with adequate temperature-controlled storage for expensive instruments, climate-controlled rehearsal spaces, and more functional use of existing space through design improvements.
