NCPA Concert Hall guide and tickets

Rating:

The Concert Hall of National Grand Theatre (Chinese: 国家大剧院音乐厅) mainly for large-scale symphony orchestra and ethnic musicals. It's a room of contrasts, with a beautiful mix of red and plane coloured wood. Its 2,017 Seats of Concert Hall are still wrapped in white paper. But one can't help but be impressed by the amazing beauty emanating from the enormous organ sitting on the stage, large enough to seat a 120 member harmonic orchestra. The seats behind the stage can also be lowered to allow a choir of up to 180 people on. This hall connective with the Opera house and Drama theatre in NCPA.
