Barcelona
is famed for the wide variety of its musical events. From classical
music, opera and ballet, through jazz, flamenco, pop and rock, to
the most innovative festivals. In 1999 the city regained its opera
house, the Gran Teatre del Liceu, and
opened the Auditori with a program featuring
the most diverse genres and musical styles. In addition to these musical
events we find those of the Palau de la Musica
Catalana, a jewel of modernista architecture.
Theatre companies of international standing - Els
Comediants,
La Fura dels Baus, Els Joglars, El Tricicle - and spectacular
local festivals pulsating with life and colour, such as the Merce.
Major events such as the Grec summer festival,
one of the most important culture feasts on the European calendar.
