The Story

The great theater that hosted the Modern Art Week of 1922, the week that forever changed Brazilian art and music, bringing modernism to a country still attached to European tradition. Heitor Villa-Lobos performed here amidst boos and applause. Still one of São Paulo's great concert halls.
