We saw something called "A Soul Christmas" which was phenomenal. It consisted of the fabulous Cleveland Orchestra accompanying some amazing African-African singers doing a wonderful selection of Broadway hits. It was awesome.

It has taken me half a century to start to appreciate some of the local cultural wonders that we have in the Cleveland area. I went with my son who was attending the concert as a college music assignment. We made a night out of it eating in Little Italy and arriving early to walk around the building and take... More

The music, setting and location cannot be matched. In the heart of University Circle this is a wonderful Cleveland tradition that is not to be missed. Truly world class in every way!

My wife and I heard the last performance of Cleveland's season. Unexpected was the leadership of Austrian Manfred Honek. For my ear he moved the orchestra beyond its ordinarily stellar virtuosity by sheer force of his energy, his clear and original phrasing and stately pacing. The Cleveland has earned its international reputation. Honek burnished it. No adverse implication may be... More

We had the opportunity through Positively Cleveland (part of the Visitors Center of Cleveland) to tour and learn about Severance Hall and attend a Cleveland Orchestra concert. If you ever have a chance to take the free tours offered by Severance Hall when visiting Cleveland, you should do it. This hall is so beautiful and majestic and has a wonderful... More

What a great Hall! And the Cleveland Orchestra is one of the best around - they are quite generous in playing numerous free concerts, their members sit in at various locales, and the hall is a tribute to an era gone by. ---nice place to go with a date, group, or even alone.

We have been to the Cleveland Orchestra many times at Severance Hall. We have not only never been let down, but always blown away! If you enjoy spectacularly gifted musicians practicing their craft, you must visit.

The first time I enjoyed the Cleveland Orchestra was many years ago. And, have been hooked ever since. I enjoy a nice summer concert with warm weather. Always brings a smile to my face.

My children and I loved the experience at Christmas! The hall is beautiful, they offer many special evenings of music with guest conductors and renown musicians. Everyone should put this on their list of things to do.

The Cleveland Orchestra is world class. We attended their holiday concert, which was a wonderful beginning to our holiday season. Severance Hall is a stunningly gorgeous building. The concert hall acoustics are just brilliant and there is truly not a bad seat in the house.
