New Jersey gets a concert hall

New Jersey gets a concert hall

The New Jersey Symphony, a peripatetic orchestra, has been given a 30-year lease on a new Jersey City hall with 550 seats.

The venue is owned by the city and the gift comes at a vital time. The NJSO has sacked staff and cut concerts to stay solvent this season.

Not many visitors go to Jersey chiefly for the music.
