Modell Performing Arts Center at the Lyric

Built as The Music Hall in 1894, it was designed after Amsterdam's Concertgebouw and was the base of the Baltimore Opera Company till its bankruptcy. For a brief time it was also known as the Lyric Opera House, but was rechristened as the Modell Performing Arts Center. The turf of the Lyric Opera Baltimore, this acoustically sound hall is one of the major venues for not only operas, but also concerts and other musical programs.
