Fodor's Review:

The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) is the performing home of the Brooklyn Philharmonic (718/488-5700. www.brooklynphilharmonic.org), which, under the direction of Michael Christie, has some of the most adventurous symphonic programming to be found in the city. The impressive acoustics here perfectly complement the Philharmonic and the wide selection of nontraditional musical programming featured here throughout the year.

  • Metro: 2, 3, 4, 5, B, Q to Atlantic Ave.
