Troy Savings Bank Music Hall

About Me

History of The Hall

..
In the early years of the twentieth century the Music Hall was honored with performances by such world-renowned artists as Lillian Nordica, Henri Vieuxtemps, Ignace Jan Paderewski,and Jose Iturbi. During the era preceding World War II, internationally respected performers continued to grace the Music Hall stage. Rarely did a great musician of the day fail to include on his or her American tour an appearance at the celebrated Music Hall. As the twentieth century progressed, Troy's industrial dominance declined. As Troy's wealth faded, so did its ability to support the arts on the scale to which it had become accustomed. Troy's community leaders began looking into ways to save the Hall. A not-for-profit organization which leases the Hall from the bank, began its introductory 1979-1980 season with a performance by the Benny Goodman Band.The Hall, which was named a National Historic Landmark in 1989, is in use over one hundred and fifty days a year, and looks forward to a future fully as bright as its storied past.- R. McClintock
