Beunos Aires’ Teatro Colón is one of those opulent opera houses that commands attention given its ornate beauty, but those who love to hear opera here say it’s the quality of the building’s acoustics—said to be one of the best five acoustics for opera in the world—that makes it a not-to-be-missed experience. The building has regained some of its former glory with a facelift completed in early 2010. Built in 1908, the 2,700-seat theater has some luxe touches, like French stained glass and pink marble stairways brought in from Italy. The programming also includes ballet performances, which has brought stars like Nijinksky, Nureyev and Baryshnikov to its stage. Igor Stravinsky, Richard Strauss and Arturo Toscanini are among the great composers who have performed here.
