카네기 홀(Carnegie Hall)은 뉴욕의 미드타운 맨해튼에 위치한 음악 공연장이다. 철강 사업가인 앤드루 카네기가 아내와의 신혼여행에서 우연히 만난 월터 담로시라는 지휘자와 친해지고 담로시가 뉴욕에 공연장을 짓고 싶다고 얘기하자 예전부터 예술에 관심이 많던 카네기는 200만 달러를 내놓으며 그를 돕기로 한다. 1891년 5월 5일에 개관 축하 공연이 열렸고 많은 사람들이 공연을 보러 왔다. 이후 카네기 홀은 뉴욕 시에 인수되었다.
If you're seeing a show and your tickets are at will call, you can save a lot of time by picking them up anytime before the show (even that day). The will call line the day of a show is a mad house.
Good gift shop, excellent performances, amazing acoustics, ambient atmosphere, and an ornate hall perfect for any performance no matter the occasion. What's not to love?
Very beautiful location, the ushers at Carnegie hall are amongst the rudest people that I have dealt with in such a classy establishment. C.H. needs to invest in better ushers, DAMN THE RED COATS.
Sunday 2pm performance of the NY Youth orchestra was excellent, and much cheaper. This meant we could buy 2nd tier box seats to get the Carnegie experience for a fraction of the price
If you get a box seat, try to get seat #1, 2, or 3. You can still hear well and see well enough in the second row, but you might have a wall in seats 7 or 8 in a box
