    Abravanel Hall is home to the Utah Symphony Orchestra and part of the Salt Lake County Center for the Arts. Adjacent to Temple Square and the Salt Palace on South Temple Street this architectural masterpiece has become a landmark. Besides symphony performances, the hall also hosts numerous concerts and special events. Abravanel Hall was created specifically to provide an environment of acoustical excellence by Dr. Cyril M. Harris, who was the acoustical consultant for the remodeled Avery Fisher Hall in New York City, the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. and Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis, all of witch are known for their acoustical excellence. Abravanel Hall, formerly known as Symphony Hall, was so named in May 1993 to the beloved Maestro Maurice Abravanel, conductor of the Utah Symphony and advocate for all the arts in Utah.
