Frank O Gehry: Walt Disney Concert Hall

Frank O Gehry was born on February, 1929.


The Walt Disney Concert Hall was made in Los Angeles. This building is 3.6 acres and it is made of stainless steel curves. Lillian Disney visioned and inspired this structure. This hall is part of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Center. This building had cost around $100 million. Frank Gehry was chosen to build this structure in 1988. He unveiled the design in 1991. He finally finished it in 1996. He used a quite unique shape. He makes crazy curves with metal. This is where music can be shared throughout the world. Classical, jazz, and opera is expressed. It consists of a garden, orchestra room, and gallery room. It is today known as one of the most acoustically sophisticated concert halls in the world. Frank Gehry has outdone himself yet again.

  6. You have accumulated quite a knowledge on the Dusney Concert Hall, and Frank Gehry through your research. You should have written on another structure such as the Guggenheim Museum.
