Palau de la Música Catalana

The Palau de la Música Catalana is one of the world’s leading concert halls. Considered to be one of Modernism’s chief exponents, it was built by the Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner between 1905 and 1908. In 1997 it was declared a “World Heritage Site” by the UNESCO. The Palau de la Música Catalana plays host to musical seasons arranged by different organizations, with a frequency exceeding three hundred sessions per year.

Since it’s opening, Barcelona concertgoers have had the privilege to attend concerts performed by the world most famous artists, i.e., Leonard Bernstein conducting West Side Story, Duke Ellington performing his masterful swing music, as well as Karajan, Chick Corea, and so many others.

These musicians have given the Barcelonians some unforgettable nights of music. While in Barcelona you should experience such a magical night too.
