Jones Hall rocked with the virtuoso
Itzhak Perlman playing Beethoven!
He played his 1714 Stradivarius violin, which has a sound of angels wings!
Jones Hall is still fantastic, clean and organized. Only one disappointment; the prices of drinks, coffee and food went up again.
Jones Hall for the Performing Arts is one of Houston’s crown jewels. This year, my husband and I decided to get season tickets to the Houston Symphony, and it has been one of the best decisions we've made. Every concert is an experience—whether it's a classical masterpiece or a bold new composition, the talent, passion, and acoustics are unmatched.
We’ve also attended several of the curated shows, and they’ve been just as spectacular. The variety in programming keeps things fresh and exciting, and we love how the performances often spotlight underrepresented voices and innovative storytelling through music.
The hall itself is beautiful—elegant and timeless, with great sightlines and an atmosphere that feels both grand and intimate. The staff are always warm and helpful, and everything from ticketing to intermission runs smoothly.
We look forward to every visit. Whether it’s date night or a special occasion, Jones Hall always delivers a memorable night out. We feel lucky to be part of this season and can’t wait for the performances still to come!
