"A rousing round of applause for yet another fantastic concert by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra featuring James Ehnes playing the Prokofiev Violin Concerto, in addition to Stenhammar's luscious "Excelsior!" Overture and Tchaikovsky's 5th Symphony"
A small group of photographers were allowed to photograph this theatre yesterday. It was built in 1927. We were fortunate to have this lovely organ on stage as well. Used Nik software to create this tonality. Thank you for your appreciation, Gail
Frankfurt is one of the few European cities with a large cluster of high rise building in its downtown area; in many other European cities, skyscraper construction was not well received in the past due to the historical value of existing buildings. For this reason, Frankfurt is sometimes referred to as "Mainhattan" (a portmanteau of the local Main river and Manhattan), and Chicago am Main.
The Elbphilharmonie (Elbe Philharmonic Hall) is a concert hall in the HafenCity quarter of Hamburg, Germany, on the Grasbrook peninsula of the Elbe River. It is one of the largest and acoustically most advanced concert halls in the world.
A curved (80 Meters long) escalator from the main entrance at the east side connects the ground floor with an observation deck, the Plaza, at the 8th floor, the top of the brick section.
Tourism is booming in Iceland, and so is interest in exploring Reykjavik's cultural highlights, such as iconic Harpa concert hall here...

ENG: A view over Hamburg's city centre. The main church is the St. Michaelis Church - also called "Michel" - and this is Hamburg's most famous landmark. These three selected pictures were taken while visiting the 132 meter high church tower. The five Euro entrance fee is definitely worth it, because you get a great view over the Hanseatic city.

Beim Besuch des 132 Meter hohen Kirchenturms sind diese drei ausgewählten Bilder entstanden.

Harpa (Icelandic for Harp) is a concert hall and conference centre in Reykjavík, Iceland. The opening concert was held on 4 May 2011. The building features a distinctive colored glass facade inspired by the basalt landscape of Iceland.
It was designed by the Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects in co-operation with Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson. The structure consists of a steel framework clad with geometric shaped glass panels of different colours.
Construction started in 2007 but was halted with the start of the financial crisis. The completion of the structure was uncertain until the government decided in 2008 to fully fund the rest of the construction costs for the half-built concert hall. For several years it was the only construction project in existence in Iceland. The building was given its name on the Day of Icelandic Music on 11 December 2009, prior to which it was called Reykjavík Concert Hall and Conference Centre (Icelandic: Tónlistar- og ráðstefnuhúsið í Reykjavík). The building is the first purpose-built concert hall in Reykjavík and it was developed in consultation with artistic advisor Vladimir Ashkenazy and international consultant Jasper Parrott of HarrisonParrott.[8] It houses the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and the offices of The Icelandic Opera.
In 2013, the building won the European Union's Mies van der Rohe award for contemporary architecture.
The glass façade of the building consists of 714 LED lights, 486 in the eastern part of the building and 228 in the western part. These lights usually display video works designed by Olafur Eliasson, and sometimes other artists
