Symphony Hall, which opened in 1900, is considered one of the most acoustically perfect concert venues in the world. Designed by McKim, Mead & White, it is home to the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Pops. The hall’s exceptional acoustics are attributed to its shoebox shape and careful attention to materials used in its construction – notably the use of birch wood panelling. Throughout its history, Symphony Hall has hosted performances by numerous internationally renowned musicians and orchestras and has undergone several renovations to preserve its acoustic qualities while updating facilities. It remains a landmark cultural institution in Boston.
