点评:I would give Carnegie Hall 3 stars except that the concert itself was spectacular. We saw Harry Connick Jr’s special tribute concert to his mother and it was powerful, emotional and special. The talent of all the performers Connick, his big band and the orchestra were all spectacular.
I love old buildings and would have toured Carnegie hall anyway, so I was very excited for the opportunity for this concert. The problem with old buildings is, well, they’re old. The building was constructed in 1890, people were smaller back then. Being 5 foot on a good day, I didn’t have much of a problem, but if you are of any size the seats are tiny. I don’t know if they are different on the main level, we were in the balcony. Also do not get seats on the side in the balcony, you will not be able to see much of the stage.
The elevators only went up so far, so if you are in the balcony, you still have to climb stairs and there is no restroom on that level necessitating another trip down and back up the stairs.
That being said, the sound is excellent and the theatre stunning.
翻译:如果不是因为音乐会本身精彩绝伦,我本来会给卡内基音乐厅三星。我们观看了哈里·康尼克二世为纪念他母亲而举办的特别音乐会,这场音乐会震撼人心、感人至深,令人难忘。康尼克本人、他的大乐队以及管弦乐队的所有表演者都才华横溢,令人叹为观止。
我喜欢古老的建筑,本来就打算去参观卡内基音乐厅,所以这次有机会欣赏这场音乐会让我非常兴奋。但古老建筑的问题在于,它们毕竟是古老的。这座建筑建于1890年,那时候人们的身材比较矮小。我身高五英尺(约1.52米),所以感觉还好,但如果你个子比较高,座位就会显得非常狭小。我不知道主层的座位是否有所不同,我们当时是在二楼包厢。另外,千万不要选择包厢侧边的座位,否则你几乎看不到舞台。
电梯只能到指定高度,所以如果你在楼座,还得爬楼梯,而且那一层没有洗手间,所以还得再下楼再爬上来。
话虽如此,音响效果极佳,剧院也令人惊艳。
