Concertgebouw, is exactly what its literal translation in English suggests, a 'concert building'. It is not only one of the most famous concert halls in Amsterdam, but is also celebrated as the most philharmonic concert venues in the world due to its brilliant acoustics. The Concertgebouw has also claimed to be one of the finest concert halls in the world. It has been the centre for the classical music scene of the Netherlands for over a century now. The Concertgebouw not only holds classical music concerts, but has also come to showcase jazz and pop shows along with special events such as festive occasions and congresses. The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra happens to be the most prominent ensemble featured at the concert building with around 120 shows a year.
