The Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, which loosely translates to “concert building” in English, is critically acclaimed as one of the finest concert halls in the world comparable to Boston’s Symphony Hall and Vienna’s Musikverein. This incredible venue has unparalleled acoustics due to its fantastically designed Main Hall and Recital Hall, as well as its recently opened Choir Hall, and is famous worldwide for its legendary concerts. Interestingly, in 2013, the Concertgebouw was bestowed the Royal title “Koninklijk” by Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands in honour of its 125th anniversary and world class stature.

This fantastic building was designed by architect Adolf Leonard van Gendt in 1883, and has since hosted thousands of concerts with renowned artists and musicians from vastly different genres of music performing each year. Over 700,000 visitors tour the Concertgebouw each year, making it one of the most visited concert halls in the world. With its outstanding acoustics and beautiful architecture, the Concertgebouw is a must for concert lovers and music aficionados keen on an unforgettable music experience that will pamper the senses and inspire the soul.
