        Treading carefully, because I don't want another one so soon after I. So I hereby dedicate anything said to be in the public domain.

        I was just thinking of Hindemith's Kleine Kammermusik, as opposed to his other, non-kleine, Kammermusiken, and there must be a concert hall somewhere called Kammer-something? (Tiptoes away, right or wrong ...)

                "Concert building" is interesting vocabulary, suggesting that the more usual "hall" is in the solution?
                Like Kingsway or some such?

                    Time for a clue?

                    The order is significant.

                      "Concert building" is a precise translation.

                        From Krill to Krakatoa, in increasing size, the Ks have never been more closely scrutinised ... as yet to no avail.

                            As in Concertgebouw? The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra = Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest

                            But where to now?

                              Hmm...

                              << A smaller, oval-shaped venue, the Kleine Zaal ("Small Hall"), is located behind the main hall. The Kleine Zaal is 20 meters (66 ft) long and 15 meters (50 ft) wide. Its more intimate space is well-suited for chamber music and lieder. The Kleine Zaal has 478 seats.>>

                                And...

                                << The Grote Zaal ("Great Hall", which is the main hall) seats 2037, and is 44 meters (144 ft) long, 28 meters (92 ft) wide, and 17 meters (56 ft) high. Its reverberation time is 2.8 seconds without audience, 2.2 seconds with, making it ideal for the late Romantic repertoire such as Mahler. >>

                                But not many Ks
