Kleinhans Music Hall in 360 | Grand Lobby

This 360-degree immersive video of Kleinhans Music Hall features the beautiful interior of the grand lobby from the perspective of the first floor and the balcony. Kleinhans Music Hall Archivist Lauren Becker talks about how Eliel and Eero Saarinen’s design of the grand lobby encourages people to participate in the social benefit of enjoying music together,

Kleinhans Music Hall, designed by Finnish architects Eliel and Eero Saarinen, is a national historic landmark and has been the home of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, the Buffalo Chamber Music Society, and the Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus since it opened in October of 1940. At the same time, it functions as a civic auditorium, welcoming the entire community to celebrate each other in the space.


Major funding for Kleinhans’ Gift to Buffalo is provided by Clement & Karen Arrison, The Baird Foundation, Francis & Cindy Letro, and Bob Skerker, with additional funding from Bond Schoeneck & King, Peter & Maria Eliopoulos, Daniel & Barbara Hart, and Jeremy & Sally Oczek.
