"The gift of brewer Andrew Usher, the baroque Usher Hall was designed by J Stockdale Harrison of Leicester. The auditorium has superb acoustics as befits Edinburgh's main concert hall. Extensive £9m refurbishment in 2000 has introduced modern services and removable seating in the stalls." http://www.cockburn.org.uk/
