Rome’s new Auditorium, designed by Renzo Piano,
was opened on April 21th 2002. Seven years of work, 175.000.000
Euros investment for this great citadel of music, a place Renzo
Piano calls: “both sacred and profane, with a link to the
city in its everyday, urban dimension. It also has the spiritual
dimension, with music, singing, entertainment”.
Three grey domes emerge inside the immense park (55.000 square meters
inclusive of recording studios, restaurants, bars, shops, libraries
and museums), floors in red travertine (a tribute to Rome), decorations
in lead, concrete and precious wood.
