Abravanel Hall

Abravanel Hall is an architectural and artistic icon in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City. Built as the home of the Utah Symphony in 1979, the Hall is named for Maurice Abravanel, the long-time conductor of the Symphony and champion of classical music throughout Utah. Abravanel Hall is renowned for its acoustical excellence. The performance space is actually a concrete building within a brick building, blocking out the din of the city and the lobby. Inside the performance hall, the white oak walls with distinctive raised paneling, allows the clear sounds of the Symphony to float throughout the Hall.
