Carnegie Hall
57th Street and, 7th Ave, New York, NY 10019, USA
Concert hall with exceptional acoustics, host to legendary performers for over a century.
This guide to Carnegie Hall opens in 1956, when a developer bought the building planning to tear it down for a forty-four-story office tower just as the New York Philharmonic was leaving for Lincoln Center. It covers violinist Isaac Stern's campaign to rally the world's leading musicians against the wrecking ball, and Andrew Carnegie's original 1891 opening night, conducted by Tchaikovsky.
