Theater Basel is the municipal theatre of the city of Basel, Switzerland, which is home to the city's opera and ballet companies. The theatre also presents plays and musicals in addition to operas and operettas. Because the theatre does not have its own orchestra, the Symphony Orchestra Basel is usually contracted to perform for opera and ballet productions as needed. For baroque-opera productions, La Cetra, the baroque orchestra of the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, is engaged. ==History== Theater Basel was founded in 1834 under the name Basler Stadttheater. The first theatre was designed by Swiss architect Melchior Berri. In 1873 work on a new theatre began which was designed by Johann Jakob Stehlin der Jüngere. This second theatre opened in 1875 and was used until it was destroyed by fire on October 7th, 1904. Plans for a third theatre were soon made, but it was five years before that the theatre finally opened in 1909. The fourth theatre opened in 1975. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Theater Basel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
