New York City Adventure|| Carnegie Hall -- In the Words of Andrew
We just got back from Carnegie Hall. For those of you who don't know anything about the hall, it was founded and sponsored by Andrew Carnegie, the famous millionaire and philanthropist. It was built in Manhattan, New York, opening its doors in 1891. It has since become the most famous concert hall in America, regularly hosting the most prestigious international Classical musicians. Anyway, I'm a rather devoted Classical fan, and of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra in particular. As some may gather from their name, the orchestra in based in Berlin, Germany, and has a glittering history of success, being widely recognized as the world's greatest orchestra. I heard them at Carnegie Hall back in the winter of 2012, when I got a pair of tickets as a gift. It was such a spell-binding experience that I determined I'd go see them again. They didn't come back to New York until this October, when they opened the season with a series of concerts. I wanted to go badly, but wanted to find some friends who'd be game to go with me. The candidates would have to be willing to spend a little bit, willing to sit through a two hour concert, and put up with atrocious me. Enter Jordan and Josiah Slabaugh, who were all into it. So I went ahead and bought the tickets, and we started making plans.
We wanted to have the full experience, so we decided we would drive to Trenton and take the train the rest of the way, and we were going to be sure to eat out.
