concert halls
Where orchestras play
Concert halls are large venues designed for musical performances, typically featuring acoustics optimized for orchestral, choral, or solo instrumental music.
Unlike theaters or opera houses, concert halls usually lack a proscenium stage, placing the audience in closer relationship to the performers: The symphony orchestra performs in one of the finest concert halls in Europe.
The term may also apply to smaller recital spaces.
