National Auditorium of Music

The National Auditorium of Music is a modern concert hall complex with two main performance spaces designed for different types of music. One room accommodates symphony orchestras while the smaller room hosts chamber performances and recitals.

The building was constructed in the late 1980s as part of a national initiative to create modern performance spaces. Its opening represented a significant expansion of Madrid's cultural infrastructure during that period.

The building serves as the home base for several major Spanish orchestras and choirs that perform regularly here. These ensembles shape the programming and make this place central to classical music in Spain.

The venue is well served by public transportation and located in a central neighborhood with good connections throughout the city. Visitors should check the calendar in advance to plan their visit and learn about upcoming performances.

The main hall features an unusual stage design where the audience surrounds the orchestra from multiple sides. This layout differs from traditional concert halls and creates a different listening experience for those attending.
