What could be lurking in the archives of Carnegie Hall?

The "Recordings" and "Video" collections are of most interest to us. Why? Because they might contain
evidence of Django's concerts there on November 23 and November 24. If anyone could find out how
to retrieve anything from there, I'll be glad to help although I won't be able to travel to the U.S.



Photographs Collection

The Photograph Collection documents the visual history of Carnegie Hall. Images of the building (including photos from its 1891 construction) and the participants in events that have taken place on the three stages are part of this collection.

Posters Collection

The Posters Collection consists of promotional flyers, window cards, and large posters from a variety of Carnegie Hall events dating back to the 1890s. Some were displayed in cases on the exterior of the building; others would have been distributed by hand or by mail.

Programs Collection

The Programs Collection documents the performances that have taken place on all three stages of Carnegie Hall, and consists of printed concert programs from 1891 to the present. Some gaps exist in the collection, primarily for the two smaller auditoriums.

Recordings Collection

Carnegie Hall’s audio collection consists of recordings of one-time performances by many of the world’s greatest musicians. The collection includes commercial releases, archival study recordings, and radio broadcasts in formats ranging from acetate and vinyl discs to analog and digital audio tape and compact discs.

Video Collection

Carnegie Hall’s video collection documents many of Carnegie Hall’s historic events. The collection consists of television broadcasts, commercial releases, documentaries, b-roll footage, newsreel clips, and archival study videos.
