TEATRO REGIO DI PARMA
The elegance of the stuccoes, the harmony of the proportions, the perfect acoustics, the prestigious history, along with the greatness of the artists who have graced its stage, make the Teatro Regio di Parma one of the most recognized and celebrated opera houses in the world. Commissioned by Duchess Maria Luigia of Austria and originally named the New Ducal Theatre, the Teatro Regio was inaugurated on May 16, 1829, with Zaira, an opera composed for the occasion by Vincenzo Bellini.
