Kaufmann Concert Hall

Kaufmann Concert Hall serves as a creative anchor within the 92nd Street Y, a cultural institution that has occupied this site on Lexington Avenue since the turn of the twentieth century. While many assume its fame rests on traditional recitals, the hall gained its reputation as a crucible for groundbreaking American art. It was on this stage that Dylan Thomas famously premiered his radio drama Under Milk Wood. The space provided the setting for the debut of Alvin Ailey’s seminal work, Revelations, which reshaped the language of modern dance.
