Summary
"When Carnegie hall opened in 1891, no one could have predicted its incredible success. With talented artists like Duke Ellington and scientists like Albert Einstein gracing its stage, Carnegie became a place where all people could join together and be entertained... Violinist Isaac Stern, the son of Jewish immigrants who fled to America to escape the Holocaust [had] his dream of performing on Carnegie Hall's legendary stage [come] true many times over. So when a real estate tycoon set out to demolish Carnegie Hall, Isaac knew something had to be done to save it."--, dapted from front jacket flap
