Fodor's Review:

Carnegie Hall is one of the best venues – anywhere – to hear classical music. The world's top orchestras sound so good because of the incomparable acoustics of the fabulously steep Stern Auditorium. So do smaller ensembles and soloists such as soprano Renée Fleming. The subterranean Zankel Hall, also with excellent acoustics, attracts performers such as the Kronos Quartet, Alarm Will Sound, and Youssou N'Dour. Many young talents make their New York debuts in the Weill Recital Hall.

  • Metro: N, Q, R, W to 57th St.; B, D, E to 7th Ave.
