About

This hall has been conceived mainly for symphonic music. Because of its peculiar acoustics (the time of reverberation is 2,2 seconds), it can also be used for concerts of sacred, chamber and contemporary music, guaranteeing excellent listening conditions.

The volume of the entire architectural project is about 30.000 square metres.
The covering shell-vaults, of exceptional sizes, are made with frames of girders of glue-laminated wood, combined with steel elements.
The towards the middle of the hall, the stage is surrounded by the “vineyards”: seated places that rise like a valance around the stage.
The innovative conception is that of the suspended ceiling. It is made with 26 shells of American cherry wood, each one of which has a 180 square metre surface. Even the pit and the galleries are veneered with wood in order to make a harmonic chamber out of the hall, guaranteeing excellent acoustics.
