Thanks to the generosity of benefactor Avery Fisher, the former Philharmonic Hall is now, after early acoustics problems, worthy of the New York Philharmonic, the oldest symphony orchestra in the U.S.. A bust by Rodin of composer and former Philharmonic Music Director Gustav Mahler, on the west side of the building, is one of the best pieces of public sculpture in Lincoln Center (see Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts).
