Elizabeth Wirth Music Building
The Elizabeth Wirth Music Building (formerly the New Music Building) is one of two buildings belonging to the Schulich School of Music at McGill University, the other being the Strathcona Music Building directly adjacent to it. The building is located at 527 Sherbrooke Street West, on the corner of Sherbrooke and Aylmer Street in Montreal, Quebec and was designed in 2005 by the Montreal-based architectural firm Saucier + Perrotte. The building officially opened in 2006, and its construction was made possible through a donation of C$20 million from McGill alumnus Seymour Schulich to the Schulich School of Music. The building was officially inaugurated as the Elizabeth Wirth Music Building on April 30, 2015, after the School received a donation of C$7.5 million from McGill alumna Elizabeth Wirth.The contemporary, eight-storey building is connected to the historic Strathcona Music Building by a glazed bridge that runs through the main entrance hall, and contains a multi-level lobby, recording studios, multimedia rooms, performance venues and the Marvin Duchow Music Library, which spans three floors.
