It takes the music and makes it larger than life.Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie, who paid for its construction. Construction on Carnegie Hall began in 1890 and the official opening night was on May 5, 1891.The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1924 when it was sold to Robert E. Simon. The building became very old and in 1960, the new owner made plans to destroy it and build an office block. Isaac Stem led a group of people who fought to save Carnegie Hall and finally, the city of New York bought it for $5 million. It was then fixed up between 1983 and 1995.Advertisements and stories in newspapers about how Carnegie Hall needed help to recover its history led people to send in old concert programmers and information from all over the world. Over 12,000 concert programmers were received and with these it was possible to make a proper record of Carnegie Halls concert history.Carnegie Hall is actually made up of several different halls, but the Main Hall, now called the Isaac Stern Hall, is the most famous. The hall itself can hold an audience of 2,804 in five levels of seating. Because the best and most famous musicians of all time have played at Carnegie Hall, it is the dream of most musicians who want to be great to play there. This has led to a very old joke which is now part of Carnegie Halls history. Question: “How do I get to Carnegie Hall?” Answer: “Practise, practise, practise.”28.
