Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center, TX
The Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center is the crown jewel of Dallas' musical venues. Opened in 1989, the $81.5 million center was designed by I.M. Pei, with acoustics by Russell Johnson. A striking architectural monument, the Meyerson is often cited by visiting artists as one of the acoustically finest halls in America. The focus of attention in the 2,062 seat auditorium is often the Lay Family Organ, a huge instrument custom-made by the C.B. Fisk Co. of Massachusetts. The Meyerson, which is owned by the City of Dallas, serves as the home of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and the Dallas Wind Symphony, but it's popular for other events, which actually outnumber DSO concerts. It has been used for a host of non symphonic programs, church services, corporate meetings, trade shows, even weddings. It is an especially popular site for commercial photo shoots. Among its amenities are direct access to underground parking (the main parking entrance is on Ross Avenue between Crockett and Leonard Streets) and a restaurant, Opus. The latter is open irregularly depending on events. It also serves private functions. In additition to its concerts and other events, the hall is often open for free public tours. Charter a limo to go in style to the symphony center.
