Symphony Hall gets all the glory but Jordan Hall is actually my favorite place to hear classical music. Beautiful, intimate, and great acoustics/miking.

What a beautiful venue! They sell three prices for the space, but honestly, it is tough to have a bad seat here. Acoustically, the room is great. Stylistically, the balcony is neat, though I got a little bit of vertigo due to the shapw of the seating. It seems to curve down on the sides.

Beautiful spot. We sat in the front row, upper balcony. at first it seems like it would be hard to see whats going on on the stage but its a nice view of everything. There is a garage to park at right next to the hall, so that was convenient.

Beautiful, landmark concert hall with amazing acoustics and an intimate ambience, especially considering its size. Wonderful performances occur throughout the year in this hall, and music lovers NEED to experience this space! Many of the concerts are free too, as the hall is part of New England Conservatory of Music, and faculty and students of the highest caliber perform there regularly.

Beautiful little concert hall with terrific acoustics. Home of the First Monday Concerts.

Nice venue with comfortable seats. Charm.

Very entertaining, extremely educational, unique venue.

Gorgeous venue with perfect acoustics and music that was nothing short of sublime. I would absolutely go back here next time Im in Boston. A+

Acoustically, Jordan Hall is marvelous. I dont think theres a bad seat in the house. _However_, to achieve that, the outer rows of seats are tilted, worse as you approach the stage. Feels very odd until you figure out how to position yourself (basically, swivel toward the stage, if your neighbor will let you.)

One of two historic venues in Boston. Fantastic for chamber music. Can accommodate orchestras as well.

Very aged but gorgeous hall. Comfortable seats.

Superb acoustics. Generous performance led by Sir Simon Rattle for a wonderful cause.

Acoustics in this hall are one of the best in America. Seats can be tight but there are some on the aisles that are adequate for longer legs. Concessions are limited with no alcohol. That being said, its one of the most beautiful halls in have ever seen.

Excellent sound quality and very pleasant staff and as a bonus a parking garage right next door.

Gorgeous hall. Historic. Extraordinary acoustics.

Saw a magnificent klezmer concert by David Krakauer.

What a magnificent place to listen to music. I was attending the Boston Gay Man Chorus Christmas concert. This year was absolutely magnificent. They added a small brass band that complimented perfectly the Man voices of the choir. Additionally, it gave the holiday spirit with the sound of bells . Could it be more perfect than that.

The acoustics in that Hall are spectacular! The seats can lead to orthopedic problems, but the acoustics more than make up for it.

Wonderful acoustics, beautiful hall, all the seats have a good view.

It cant be said often enough - Jordan Hall is frequently and accurately described as a Boston-area treasure. Its a small miracle to have both Symphony Hall and Jordan Hall only a city block apart (and Boston concertgoers have at least four magnificent places to hear classical repertoire). Jordan Hall is visually inspiring, and has beautiful sound throughout the Hall. Many concerts there are free, and a wide variety of musical organizations perform there (its great for Jazz and other new music as well). If youve never heard a concert in Jordan Hall, consider placing it towards the top of your list of things to do before New Years.

Great acoustics, but balcony seats are a little tight.

Amazing experience. Very talented people.

Watching free NEC concerts at Jordan Hall is one of the great features of living in Boston.

Great acoustics no matter where you sit orchestra or balcony.Feb 2019:Handel&Haydn Kristian Bezuidenhout concert Tour de force! I have not seen anything like it before! Conducting and playing Beethoven, Mozart and Bach at the same time! Sometimes playing with hand and conducting with other, sometimes standing up to conduct and plunging into vigorously playing the piano in a split second. it was mezmorizing, memorable, and wonderful.

What a great venue--the perfect blend of big enough and still having amazing site lines and acoustics.

I love this place, the home of the great NEC concerts. Its a cozy and intimate affair here with the up and coming musical stars and established ones alike.

Saw the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra here. Beautiful venue and great sound.

It is beautiful to my ears and my eyes.

Spectacular music venue. Beautiful design with immersive acoustics.

The most amazing honor to play is such a historic space. To play in Jordan Hall where my Grandfather went to school and played his Senior Recital! Very special! Acoustics and second to none!

One of the best little halls in the world. When O lived in Boston I was th er re many times a week. The main concert hall for New England Conservatory. Many free offerings, but international stars , too.

Beautiful old hall with convenient garages. amazing sounds and sight lines, not a bad seat in the house

Students are talented. Awesome concerts for free during the season...

Lovely, well restored, acoustically amazing. Seats are wired so it does not get a five.

Good acoustics and cool concert hall

Gay mens Christmas concertOur 5th year attendingWell worth the trip into Boston. Excellent eveningOf entertainment.

One of the most beautiful, elegant and crystal clear sounding concert halls in the world.

Gorgeous hall and will miss coming here for NEC concerts!

One of the classic 19th century concert halls. Not a bad seat, visually or acoustically.

One of the best places in the world to hear a live performance. Nearby parking garage, many local eateries, mostly good sight lines, except corners near stage.

The BEST hall to perform in in Boston!

Being at my sons event was an awesome place for it!

Beautiful stage but seating is terrible. Hope for an excellent concert but short.

Gorgeous performance hall, great acoustics. The chairs are a little uncomfortable, but not as bad as they look.

Love it, love it! Great acoustics...thank you Eben Jordan, founder of Jordan Marsh Dept store & patron of this historic hall!

This venerable venue is old school, seats are not great, stage updated, sound system OK operational staff good.They attract great performances!Parking is a pain. Look for deals, take the T or bite the bullet.

Great place to see a performance.

Unbelievable sound. And a beautiful flowing space.

The acoustics are incredible in this historic landmark. The majority of the seats are awful. Many are on a slant. The view from nearly every seat is lovely if you can survive long enough in the chiropractically-demonic seats. Choose your seat carefully. Main entrance is situated on the side street.

An intimate setting to listen to some music

Most beautiful hall in Boston!

Wonderful Place to Sing, and a Wonderful Place to Watch and especially, to Listen to the Performers! Bellissima!!!!

Great venue, little parking nearby... restrooms too far & few... tight older seating.

Great acoustics, and easy view of performers from right balcony

New England Conservatorys Jordan Hall and the Boston Baroque program Jephtha - fantastic! It was a first time going. We will go back. The hall is beautiful and intimate. Really not a bad seat in the house. Lovely details throughout the hall that makes me think of it as a smaller Boston Symphony Hall. We have walked by it and heard reference to Jordan Hall over the years, but have never made the step towards going in or finding an event to go to there.Spoiler alert: we live in the suburbs and do not get into Boston as much as wed like.The Boston Baroque 26 musicians played on historical instruments. i.e. violoncello, harpsichord, etc. Loved them all.For this production there was also the Boston Baroque Chorus. Wow...25 voices strong!Plus, the featured artists - six fabulous voices- who sang Handels oratorio, Jephtha.The combination of musical instruments and voices both individual and chorus was tremendous.The countertenor, Randall Scotting, was a treat. I have not experienced such a lovely strong high voice emanating from a male.The others were equally delightful. Strong wonderful voices.This show was a treat. I recommend it for all senses. Beautiful to look at and listen to; fantastic setting. Even comfortable seats. We sat in the balcony - stage right, and the view of the stage from above allowed us to seeing the chorus in the back really easily. Yet, it seems all seats would be great.For us a discovery of another place to head into Boston for a night out.Gainsborough garage -right nextdoor- has event parking for $22 for the evening. Perfect.The event was a birthday evening organized by my son who found the event onGroupmuse. Tix were $15. (Normally $65) and as mentioned very good seats.Have a great evening in Boston by going to a Boston Baroque program. Wow, it was memorable. Thank you to all the creators of this heavenly music.I will definitely look to go again.

Great place to hear a concert, particularly orchestras. Smaller space so youre closer to the stage than at Symphony Hall. The seats in the center are level and then the floor slopes down towards the stage. So if youre sitting on the left or right sides, you end up sitting slanting slightly side-to-side. An odd sensation but doesnt bother me too much. Street parking can be tough in this neighborhood. Many concerts here are free. Check NECs website (New England Conservatory)

Beautiful Hall with a very intimate setting. Perfect for orchestra or chamber groups!

Jordan Hall is the true gem of performance venues in Boston. Its wonderful acoustics are part of intimate and historical setting that is home to some of the most talented musicians around.

Superior acoustic.

Performance space at the New England Conservatory, this hall is interestingly beautiful and the acoustics are superb.

Classic ornate orchestra hall. Stellar performance by a bright and articulate Boston Civic Symphony directed by the vigorous and artistic Francisco Noya.

A wonderful concert hall, full of wonderful memories. The acoustics are excellent. The annual Messiah performance is a wonderful family tradition. Expensive (by our standards) and worth it.

Fantastic small musical venue with exquisite architectural details and superb acoustics

Nice inside but lots of construction going on around; dusty and inconvenient

Beautiful building, hall and acoustics.

The Brahms German Requiem! In historic Jordan Hall!

A gem, great sound but quirky seating. Bad sightlines from far left and right

Beautiful auditorium at New England Conservatory of Music. Attended Boston Baroque performance of Beethovens opera Fidelio.

For those not directly related to the conservatory, Jordan Hall is a little gem tucked discretely at the south of Back bay. Concerts are usually free, music is always fantastic, and the acoustic quality is outstanding, probably only behind the bigger Symphony Hall across the street.Mind you, just turn your cell phone off, like, really off. And dont cough.

The acoustics in Jordan Hall are truly exceptional; much better for orchestral works than nearby Symphony Hall. The shape is perfect for minimizing audio reflections.

This hall has the best acoustics Ive ever heard. No mater who is playing here, they will sound better because theyre in Jordan Hall.

Saw Harry Christophers conduct Purcells, The Fairy Queen. A spirited conductor, excellent performers on period instruments and talented narrator and singers, left everyone smiling as the left (after a standing ovation).

Great venue for Baroque music. Thats all I can attest to.

A great place to experience a concert!

Attended for graduate degree and have performed on this stage. Anything would sound 10x better in that space, but easy to over sing.

#Gay mens choir, a must see, Jordan Hall a must visit,beautiful

Beautiful. No concessions inside though.

BGMC-Always brilliant!

Went to see BGMC amazing

Performance hall of New England conservatory of Music.

Jordan Hall is a beautiful hall with excellent acoustics, its much more intimate then Symphony Hall. We prefer Jordan Hall to Symphony Hall because its much smaller and there are no bad seats.

Superb acoustics, outstanding historic site.

Love this place

Beautiful space

Acoustically, the best concert hall in Boston. Smaller than the Symphony Hall, though. Also, some side seats are tilted sideways and a bit uncomfortable.

A must visit for any music lover. Sensational acoustics. The abundant free shows will keep you entertained throughout the year.

Went to a concert a wonderful building.

Love this venue. The sound is amazing

Its a great place to listen to a concert, and very family friendly.

Great venue

Great seating with legroom! A big plus for anyone close to 6.

Great place to sing a concert!

Bachs Brandenburg Concertos at Jordan Hall = Absolutely amazing musicianship!!

Great acoustics and comfortable seats.

Excellent acoustics in the hall. Only historic landmark in a conservatory in the US. Great place to study.

Worlds preeminent music venue. Never change this place. Dont miss it if you are visiting Boston.

Beautiful place and wonderful acustic.

Although the seats are kind of cramped due to the age of the Hall...the sound is amazing in this place.

Love this place!

Outstanding Concert in a wonderful Concert Hall!
