Zankel Hall Concerts 2026

This more intimate venue in Carnegie Hall's basement is ideal for smaller groups, jazz, recitals, and vocalists. The escalators are problematic, but the venue is gorgeous. See Michael Feinstein here. They should make it his second home.

Small modern hall (renovated and opened for music performances in 2003) below ground level at Carnegie Hall. The performance we went to (Ensemble Intercontemporain) was very well attended. Good acoustics where we were on the mezzanine level, occasionally a soft rumble from the subway is audible. Chairs are normal for most of the hall except for in the mezzanine side wings they are oddly high up, like bar stools (probably for better visibility of the stage). Overall nice performance space, ambiance very much like a university lecture hall. A bit of a shame the world class ensemble we heard was relegated here rather than the historic main auditorium, but probably to be expected given the repertoire (Boulez etc)

A fabulous addition to Carnegie Hall with excellent acoustics.

wonderful time at Zankel last night. lively seats and one could see the pianist from everywhere. always enjoy Zankel it is very well constructed for ease and comfort.
