Gran Teatre del Liceu
The Gran Teatre del Liceu has, unlike other theatres, been built with private contributions instead of contributions from the government. The Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona opened it's doors on the 4th of April 1847, with a varied program of symphonic works, opera's and plays.
On the 31th of January the Gran Teatre del Liceu set fire for the second time. Just like in 1861, almost everything was gone. The answer of the government and the population was obvious: The Gran Teatre del Liceu had to be rebuilt on the same spot as soon as possible. This lead to the re-opening of the Gran Teatre del Liceu in October 1999.
The most important works of Mozart, Puccini, Rossini, Verdi, Strauss, Wagner, etc. were sang by the most beautiful voices of the past two centuries. Domingo, Pavarotti, Caballe, Callas en Tebaldi will for ever have a special place in the hearts of the crowd.
In the last 25 years a lot of young people became fan of these works and visit the Gran Teatre del Liceu on a regular basis for performances.
The Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona is the place to be for people that love opera music. It is situated on the Ramblas, and is easily reachable by metro (L3: Liceu) or taxi. For more information about the Gran Teatre del Liceu and ticket sale you can visit their website.
Palau de la Música Catalana

The building of Palau de la Música Catalana
The assigners of the building of Palau de la Música Catalana were a group of Catalan textile industrials, organised in a choir community, Orfeó Català, with her roots on different places in the old part of Barcelona. With almost 1400 members in 1905 the community thought it was time for a central spot for vocal art. Therefore they layed the first brick of Palau de la Música Catalana together.
The looks of Palau de la Música Catalana
The outside walls of Palau de la Música Catalana are from red stone, supported by pillars, that also are decorated with mosaic. On the corner hangs a big image of Miquel Blay, called "the Catalan anthem". Besides that there are three bustes above the facade from Palestrina, Bach and Beethoven. The building contains big windows and a lot of decorational paintings. Above the stage you can find big organ pipes and images of Richard Wagner and Josep Clavé. The hall has 2073 seats. In 1997 it was declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
