A combination of naturally occurring geology and man-made architecture lend the famous music venue nearly perfect acoustics.
, the list of performers who’ve played Red Rocks since it began hosting concerts in 1908 is nearly as long as the amphitheater’s 2.5 miles of seating.
These materials created numerous deltas in the area, including the Flatirons region west of Boulder, Roxborough State Park near Littleton, and the Garden of the Gods to the west of Colorado Springs. Together, Red Rocks and the rest of these areas form the Fountain Formation. Though the composition of the region varies, the stuff that forms Red Rocks is mainly sandstone of the poorly sorted variety; it ranges from sandy grains to larger cobbles, Burke says.
Burke, who attends at least one show a year at the venue, admits that he isn’t an audio engineer. But he offers a basic explanation: Both Creation Rock and Ship Rock, combined with the stage infrastructure built directly in front of the disc-shaped rock known as Stage Rock, create an ideal transfer of sound.
