Anthology was a 13,000 square foot, 325 seat live music venue and fine dining restaurant located at the south end of the Little Italy neighborhood of San Diego, California. It opened in summer 2007 and captured a modern feel of supper clubs of the 1930s and 40s in downtown San Diego. 〔http://anthologysd.com/about.html〕 With a cost of over $6.5 million to build, including over $1 million spent on sound engineering, acoustics, and state of the art audio and video equipment, this venue quickly garnered national and international attention, and was considered by many of the Grammy award winning artists that played there to be one of the finest venues in the world to play in. In addition, over 10 Emmy nominations were presented to Anthology during its tenure for its raw footage production of its concerts (see Anthology YouTube videos on Anthology website), an unprecedented occurrence for any music venue in the United States. Anthology closed abruptly in January 2013 because of a divorce between the Owners, and was eventually sold to a Los Angeles restaurant and entertainment conglomerate. ==Venue== While it started primarily as a jazz venue, Anthology typically featured an eclectic mix of jazz, rock, blues, Latin, Indie, classical and singer/songwriter acts.〔http://www.anthologysd.com/about.html〕 Artists were often local or small touring acts, although Anthology did occasionally host more well known artists such as Chick Corea, Michael Bublé and James Blunt. The building in which Anthology was housed, Metro Works, was built by San Francisco-based company "BCV Architects."〔http://www.anthologysd.com/press-room.html〕 It was then sound engineered by Charles M. Slater Associates Inc. "CSA designed the state-of-the-art audiovisual and $1 million digital sound systems for Anthology... The 300-seat space features a mezzanine and 30-foot high ceilings."〔http://www.cmsalter.com/project.asp?pid=117&sid=4〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthology (music venue)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
