With the right in the middle in a concert, the American musician Harry Connick Jr suddenly made stop his orchestra to lengthily consider the profusion of sculptures which made the celebrity of Palau of Mùsica.
I want to believe well that all these pastry makings represent a major element of your cultural heritage but me, they card-index me body.

H.C. Jr was right. Oldest music hall of Barcelona, frame a hundred years ago by a follower of the insane architect Gaudi, has what to give the goose flesh to no matter whom. On a side of the scene, a tank of Valkyrie in madness is on the point of crushing a bust of Beethoven.

At the bottom, a theory of Muses to half buried in the wall have the air of mislaid mummies incase, while with the end of the hall, two enormous PEGASE appear ready to jump over your head.

This place is really completely removed from rim, and it is what makes its charm. One evening in Palau, it is like a fairy tale to the acid. And, as strange as that appears, it is the ideal decoration for spectacles completely different from the other. I saw to occur there formations as different as the full orchestra from the Danish radio, the singer of flamenco Diego “El Cigala” or the rockers Tindersticks, and I was never disappointed.

What occurs to Palau is almost always interesting and even in the contrary case, the place deserves a visit. You will have only to open your eyes and close your ears.
