A really magnificent opera house with excellent acoustics where one can hear an Italian Opera sung the way it was meant to be sung. The design presentations are not exactly comparable to the Met in NYC but more than elaborate enough. The people of Rome pull out most of the stops when an opera is to be held. The street out front is cleaned, potted shrubs are added, the local police are present in dress uniforms, patrons arrived in their finest attire and a separate stopping point is set up on the street out front. The interior stuck me as somewhat La Scala like with a cubical like seating arrangements. And though may be struck dead on the streets of Milan for saying this, I thought the sound was much better Teatro Dell’Opera di Roma than at La Scala.
