About Carnegie Hall
Carnegie Hall is one of the world’s great concert halls. It presents classical, jazz and pop concerts in:
- Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage seats 2,804.
- Zankel Hall seats 599.
- Weill Recital Hall seats 268.
- Carnegie Hall Citywide across New York City.
The hall was built in 1891 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.
Carnegie 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 curating and marketing are world-class.
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 Carnegie Hall 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.
