It was a Sold-out Lang Lang concert on a Thursday night. The only seats left were in the nose-bleed section at the very top tier of seats. If you must sit there get the last row, row Q - it more feet room (forget leg room!) then row P on down. Sightlines and sound were great! Our wait time was because we got there early. The ticket price was almost $100 each - and all that was left to buy a month before the concert.
So pretty. Music sounds magical in there.
Sometimes it was difficult to hear speakers though; even with mics on.
Staff were extremely nice and helpful!

After seeing a live amplified performances at another historic venue, my appreciation for Carnegie Hall has been renewed. Comfortable seating, well lit and attentive staff make this NYC landmark live up to its reputation. Always worth a visit.
The world famous, legendary Carnegie Hall, is woven into cultural history as a theatre of great musical performances across different genres, including jazz, classical music and even the Beatles. Enjoy some great concerts, in a landmark venue, amongst appreciative, engaging and knowledgeable audiences. 2023 is the 10th anniversary of the National Youth Ensembles, and the 6th year of the National Youth Orchestra Jazz, a modern day big band. I enjoyed a sensational set of performances crammed full of young artistic talent, combined with some stylish interventions from some older masters appearing as special guests. Well done to Sean Jones, artistic director, for pulling together such an array of talent to explore some musical masterpieces. With the theme of the 29ers, or artists born on the 29th of any month, he wrote himself into a script of icons, including Duke Ellington and Wycliffe Gordon. The connection between the highly appreciative and engaged audience and the young musicians made the occasion extraordinary. A night of great memories with great people.
Beautiful, historic venue. Came to see a friend's choir perform and really enjoyed it. The concert hall is beautiful and sounds great for choral and orchestral music - would probably be too live for more modern styles or smaller ensembles. Seats were comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. It can even get a little cold if the place isn't full of people.
Carnegie hall is the first name that will pop to your mind when talking of fine arts. The venue has list of top performers through out the year. If you chose to visit you will go back impressed. It’s a national historic landmark , there are tours available even if you are not here for a show
Such a luxurious concert hall, floors are soft carpet and everything around you feels regal and elegant. The sound projection is AMAZING, you could hear someone speaking from across the hall. Many cool historical artifacts to look at, as well as a small gift shop.
Gorgeous venue!!! Beautiful, but also designed to enhance the music on the huge stage! I was there with our Plymouth, WI choir students last week for an amazing concert. 800 students were part of the fantastic show. I cried at the end when all 800 kids were singing at the same time all around the room and balconies. Phenomenal!!!
