Carnegie Hall is recognized worldwide and associated with the
heights of artistic achievement and with a multitude of famous
performers. Yet its beginnings are not so well known. In 1887, a
chance encounter on a steamship bound for Europe brought young
conductor Walter Damrosch together with millionaire philanthropist
Andrew Carnegie and his new wife, Louise. Their subsequent
friendship led to the building of this groundbreaking concert
space. This book provides the first comprehensive account of the
conception and building of Carnegie Hall, which culminated in a
five-day opening festival in May 1891, featuring spectacular music
and by a host of performers including Tchaikovsky.
