Overview
Built in 1792 in neoclassical style after winning a public competition, the Teatro La Fenice in Venice was then one of many private venues for performances and opera. In December 1836, a major fire destroyed its interior, but it was rebuilt a year later, akin to the mythical bird that rises from its own ashes. During the 19th century, the theater premiered numerous operas including Rossini's Tancredi and Bellini's I Capuleti e i Montecchi. With a capacity of over a thousand, La Fenice boasts excellent acoustics, further enhanced after being reconstructed following a second devastating fire in 1996. The theater annually presents over a hundred opera performances, a prominent symphonic season featuring complete cycles of Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, and Mahler symphonies, a contemporary repertoire focusing on Venetian artists like Nono and Maderna, as well as ballets and chamber music concerts.
