 | Birmingham Symphony Hall Reviews | 1 - 4 of 4 |  |
Go to a concert in Symphony Hall. If classical music is not your scene there are frequently other types of concerts or gigs at Symphony Hall.
In October 2000 Carol and I went to a concert of Mendelson's Elijah given by the Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra and chorus.

In the spring of 2003 Birmingham was attempting to become the European City of Culture in 2008. In the end Liverpool won the competition. As part of the bid it put on a series of concerts, in Symphony Hall, of Charles Ives symphonies accompanied by other US music. We went in March 2003 to one of these concerts. One of the accompanying pieces was a rarely performed Aaron Copland Organ Symphony and some other pieces were 19th century hymn and folk singing. The whole series was broadcast live on BBC Radio 3.

 Symphony Hall by brummielaura
There are regular concerts by the CBSO (City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra). Sir Simon Rattle was their principal conductor before he went off to the Berlin Philharmonics, so this might give you an idea of their class!
Apart from the CBSO concerts, there are frequent concerts by national and international guests. For example, I've heard Bryn Terfel as well as a concert conducted by Sir Simon (as a guest star).
Symphony Hall was only opened in 1991 and is in the same building as the ICC, a convention centre.
Even if you don't go to hear a concert, you can still enter the building. Enter from Centenary Square and leave at Brindley Place at the other end.
