Kazakhstan Central Concert Hall

The Central Concert Hall is located next to the Ak Orda Presidential Palace in Astana, the capital city of Kazakhstan. It has been inaugurated by the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev on the Independence Day of Kazakhstan, 15 December 2009.

The building’s shape resembles the dynamism of the petals of a flower as a metaphor of the dynamism of music itself. The building external structure is made by a series of curved inclined walls made of concrete with a blue back painted glass panels cladding. Those structures protect the building's interior functions from Astana’s harsh weather conditions.
