Richardson auditorium is an amazing space for enjoying a wide variety of musical offerings. The acoustics are fantastic especially for vocal or small ensemble events. There is good visibility from most seats in the house but there are a few in the balcony that are blocked by massive columns. The seats are comfortable but may be a little close for some people. Balcony access may be difficult for some people.
This fine old (1874) building on the Princeton University campus is one of the best acoustic spaces in the country. Ive had the pleasure of being both an audience member and a performer in Richardson and I love its sound. The only drawback (true unfortunately of most halls on college and University locations) is that parking is a bit inconvenient. Still, its worth taking a walk through the charming town and the university itself to get there.
A beautiful Auditorium in a stately setting. The acoustics are wonderful. Seats tight....especially for long legs.
Attended an all Mozart concert. The sisters playing Mozarts piano duet were excellent.The only problem was finding the place. The street address takes you to a very large church. The auditorium was about 100 feet behind the church with NO SIGNAGE. the walkway was in total darkness and difficult to navigate
This Auditorium resonates with me. I love every performance I see here
It’s really a beautiful place. Great building and culture.
Beautiful theater at Princeton University. Saw a wonderful production of Allison Spanns Masquerade.Need to go back to hear the pipe organs and have time to examine the murals.
Great sound, comfortable seats, intimate setting.
The place is so charming with great acoustics. Went to their Saturday evening POPS with Ryan Silverman. He is a great performer and vocalist A lot of fun listening, and some times singing along with the classics that I grew up with.
Great concerts and events. Always.
My all-time favorite concert hall. I attend all kinds of musical events there. PSO and University Concerts consistently are off the charts. Great for choral works, large orchestras, string quartets, percussion groups, and soloists.
Beautiful historical building. Staff is amazing and experiencing magic of NJSO at Richardson Auditorium is a must!
The finest place to see a concert or lecture in the state of New Jersey. Bar none.
Very enjoyable afternoon of jazz with accomplished students and seasoned performers.
Beautiful historic building. Legroom tight upstairs. Acoustics are good for unamplified music.
What a beautiful building! Amazing sound! Best idea for parking is the square across Nassau Ave off Porter (?) Square. Do NOT park on campus unless you want to walk 10 minutes - though the campus is gorgeous so its not a bad choice on a nice day.
A nice design and vibe to the place, the two story auditorium is pretty cool and the chairs feel great despite the small leg space
An awesome performance space. All seats are great as is the acoustics.
Nice venue. Depends on what you are there for. Seating is kind of tight. Bathrooms are not enough for full capacity...but what can you expect for a place built in this time frame. I am no knocking the place but more so giving other an idea on what they should expect.
Great Lecture Hall at Princeton University
Such an incredibly beautiful building both on the inside and the outside.The only problem is that the seating was not designed for leg room, great viewing, or large audiences. Make sure you buy your tickets fast, but if you get a good seat, youll be in an auditorium that will be hard to forget.
Amazing architecture and vibe. Very good acoustics. Uncomfortable seats.
One of the most beautiful buildings on the Princeton University campus.
Excellent acoustics for the Eastern Wind Symphony. If youre long legged, find a seat with an open spot in front of you.
French Tutor Guy gives 5 Stars!
Beautiful auditorium, no leg room in the balcony, but its the best view of stage
Beautiful place. Loved the show, seating and lights
The auditorium is home to many superb performances. The architecture is a distinctive Richardson Romanesque. The seats can be cramped and pillars can block some views from the balcony.
I loved it.
Great acoustical space, even when filled with people. Stage is visible from every seat
Excellent acoustics in a beautiful building and on a beautiful campus. Parking can be a challenge!
A beautiful Hall, with great sound, but only a handful of good seats. This place is a huge disappointment to most people who go there, the sight lines from the balcony are terrible and the floor seats are too low to see the full stage...For as good as the sound and the intimacy is, it just does not have enough good seats to make it worth going to.
Old and nice, very well maintained.
Classical place for a classical music
