Concert hall

A Concert hall is a cultural building, which serves as performance venue, chiefly for classical instrumental music.

Many larger cities have both public and private concert halls. The three finest concert halls in the world are generally considered to be Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, Boston's Symphony Hall, and Vienna's Musikverein.
