Ringing Cell Phone Halts Philharmonic Performance at Lincoln Center

The music director for the New York Philharmonic stopped a performance at Lincoln Center Tuesday night after a concert-goer allowed their cell phone to ring loudly.NY1 reports.

They say the ringing was so loud and non-stop that Gilbert stopped his orchestra and glared at the offender, who was sitting near the front of the theater.

People in the audience shouted out threats to have the culprit thrown out of the performance.

The owner of the cell phone never identified themselves.
