About
Carnegie Hall is one of the world’s great concert halls. It presents classical, jazz and pop concerts.
The Hall has been New York’s main stage for classical music since 1891. Some concerts become legendary and influence popular culture.
It was built by Scottish-American industrialist Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919). He made his fortune in Pittsburgh with Carnegie Steel, which later became U.S. Steel. At life’s end, Carnegie became a major philanthropist.
The Hall has not had a resident company since the New York Philharmonic moved to Lincoln Center in 1962. The Hall manages very well with rentals and its own productions.
The curation is extraordinary, and not only in classical music. It’s surprising how well the programmers understand what’s happening on the street. We learn from them too.
Carnegie Hall could comfortably retreat into European art music, but instead is elevating Mother Africa. Check out this timeline of African American music. carnegiehall.org
Some concerts have a broad cultural impact. The 1962 Bossa Nova concert helped popularize Brazilian samba jazz, which is still the world’s most popular music after the Beatles. Salsa romántica singer Gilberto Santa Rosa was the first Puerto Rican to play the Hall.
