After devoting years of his life to working and conducting in Trieste, it is a fitting tribute that the local theatre is named after its beloved Giuseppe Verdi. Neoclassical architect Matteo Pertsch built the exquisite Teatro Verdi in the late eighteenth-century. With its stately columns, elaborate adornments and lush elegance, Pertsch clearly drew his inspiration from such houses as La Scala of Milan and La Fenice of Venice. Teatro Verdi underwent massive renovations in 1977, to restore the slightly run-down theatre to its original grandeur. Each year the theatre offers an exciting program of opera, ballet and symphony concerts that span from ancient music to the contemporary.
