Fantasy on the Teatro Regio


Main Entrance




The Teatro Regio is Turin's opera house. Designed by the architects Marcello Zavellani-Rossi and Carlo Mollino between 1967 and 1973, it's one of Europe's most important modern opera houses.

Bellissimo teatro Pietro, grazie mi emoziona sempre, come la prima volta che ci sono andata, un coinvolgimento forte, c'era La Traviata....buona giornata.

Very interesting interplay of light and steel! I bet it looks less busy once one steps inside. I quite like spare modern architecture. Leaves room to dream!

Peitro: That is such a beautiful place, I imagine you have been there several times.

Que de lignes, de symétrie et de transparence ! Une prouesse technique, certainement, d'élever un tel bâtiment avec une telle baie vitrée !
Très aérien pour un palais de la musique, c'est parfaitement conçu.
Bon Dimanche, Piétro.

It looks lovely. The play of light on the glass is very pleasing.

Buon inizio settimana, ma soprattutto buon onomastico!!Sai che a Napoli si festeggia molto questa ricorrenza? Mia madre portava ai vicini cioccolatta e savoiardi:-)
Bè, poi c'era il caffè prepagato (come dici tu) agli amici:-)

WOW WOW... just look at that! How impressive. What a beautiful building. To see something of this is just taking my breath away.. very nice!

Oh my, looks great and very chic Opera House, Pietro! And, I am sure it should be home to very interesting first class productions. Being a very crazy (esp italian) opera lover, how much I wanted to go there. This past winter (in december) I watched La Traviata di Verdi here in a Opera House. May I have a good chance to see of a repeat opera at yours. Yes, yes, I wanna have it!

Have a wonderful evening~

Nice capture of the play of the lights and reflections!

Pietro, il fiume scorre nel mattino limpido, con allegra energia :-)
buona giornata.

That lake picture was the only one I had of us in a swim suit!

ciao Pietro, buona giornata!




devo chiederti un consiglio, vorrei fare come te bloccare le fotografie che posto nel blog, per evitare che vengano prelevate , ma non so come fare, ti sarei grata se mi spieghi.
