Carnegie Hall, New York

"Pardon me, how do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice." This joke is an apt one for this prestigious music and performance hall located just below Central Park in Manhattan in New York City. This, one of the Big Apple's most recognized and famous music venues was built in 1891 by the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, whose name has now become synonymous with excellence in music.
Carnegie Hall's excellent acoustics and beautiful atmosphere lend to its prestige and it has been the venue for important symphonic music concerts by philharmonic orchestras from around the world. If you have the chance and the money to spend, you can do much worse than spend an evening enjoying music at this elegant New York hot spot. If you can't afford to see a show, don't miss out on the memorable hot pastrami sandwiches you can find at the Carnegie Deli across the street. Not to be missed.
