The theatre was inaugurated on 3 August 1778 and was originally known as ((lang|it|il Nuovo Regio Ducale Teatro alla Scala)) (((lit|the New Royal Ducal Theatre at the Scala)),<ref>((cite book|title=The La Scala Theatre at Milan|year=1936|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6_5p9PqORegC))</ref><ref>((cite book|title=Verdi for Kids|page=20|author1=Bauer, Helen|author2=Voigt, Deborah))</ref> which was the former location of [[Santa Maria della Scala, Milan|a church]]). The premiere performance was [[Antonio Salieri]]'s ''[[Europa riconosciuta]]''.

Most of Italy's greatest operatic artists, and many of the finest singers from around the world, have appeared at La Scala. The theatre is regarded as one of the leading opera and ballet theatres globally. It is home to the La Scala Theatre Chorus, [[La Scala Theatre Ballet]], La Scala Theatre Orchestra, and the Filarmonica della Scala orchestra. The theatre also has an associate school, known as the La Scala Theatre Academy (((lang-it|Accademia Teatro alla Scala|links=no))), which offers professional training in music, dance, stagecraft, and stage management.

==Overview==
[[File:Milano-scalanotte e.jpg|thumb|300px|The Teatro alla Scala in Milan, by night]]
La Scala's season opens on 7 December, [[Saint Ambrose]]'s Day, the feast day of Milan's [[patron saint]]. All performances must end before midnight, and long operas start earlier in the evening when necessary.

The [[Museo Teatrale alla Scala]] (La Scala Theatre Museum), accessible from the theatre's foyer and a part of the house, contains a collection of paintings, drafts, statues, costumes, and other documents regarding the history of La Scala and of opera in general. La Scala also hosts the Accademia d'Arti e Mestieri dello Spettacolo (Academy for the Performing Arts). Its goal is to train a new generation of young musicians, technical staff, and dancers (at the [[Scuola di Ballo del Teatro alla Scala]], one of the academy's divisions).

Above the boxes, La Scala has a gallery—called the ''loggione''—where the less wealthy can watch the performances. The gallery is typically crowded with the most critical opera aficionados, known as the loggionisti, who can be ecstatic or merciless towards singers' perceived successes or failures.<ref>((Cite web|date=4 December 2012|title=Cecilia Bartoli triumphs at La Scala amidst catcalls and boos|url=https://www.gramilano.com/2012/12/cecilia-bartoli-triumphs-at-la-scala-amidst-catcalls-and-boos/|access-date=16 October 2021|language=en-GB))</ref> For their failures, artists receive a "[[baptism of fire]]" from these aficionados, and fiascos are long remembered. For example, in 2006, tenor [[Roberto Alagna]] left the stage after being booed during a performance of ''[[Aida]]'', forcing his [[understudy]], [[Antonello Palombi]], to quickly replace him mid-scene without time to change into a costume. Alagna did not return to the production.<ref name="NYT Alagna Aida article">((cite news|last=Wakin|first=Daniel J.|title=After La Scala Boos, a Tenor Boos Back|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/13/arts/music/13teno.html|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|date=13 December 2006|access-date=31 January 2018))</ref>

==History==
((More citations needed|section|date=July 2017|reason=6 paragraphs without citations))
[[File:XIX century print, Piazza della Scala, Milano.jpg|thumb|left|300px|A nineteenth-century depiction of the Teatro alla Scala]]
A fire destroyed the previous theatre, the [[Teatro Regio Ducale]], on 25 February 1776, after a [[carnival]] gala. A group of ninety wealthy Milanese, who owned private boxes in the theatre, wrote to [[Archduke Ferdinand of Austria-Este]] asking for a new theatre and a provisional one to be used while completing the new one. The [[neoclassicism|neoclassical]] architect [[Giuseppe Piermarini]] produced an initial design. However, it was rejected by Count Firmian (the governor of the then Austrian [[Lombardy]]).

A second plan was accepted in 1776 by Empress [[Maria Theresa of Austria|Maria Theresa]]. The new theatre was built on the former location of the church of [[Santa Maria della Scala, Milan|Santa Maria della Scala]], from which the theatre gets its name. The church was deconsecrated and demolished. Over a period of two years, the theatre was completed by Pietro Marliani, Pietro Nosetti, and Antonio and Giuseppe Fe. The theatre had a total of "3,000 or so" seats((sfn|Beauvert|Moatti|Kleinefenn|1995|p=80)) organized into 678 pit-stalls, arranged in six tiers of boxes above which is the 'loggione' or two galleries. Its stage is one of the largest in Italy (16.15m d x 20.4m w x 26m h).

Building expenses were covered by the sale of boxes, which were lavishly decorated by their owners, impressing observers such as [[Stendhal]]. La Scala (as it came to be known) soon became the preeminent meeting place for noble and wealthy Milanese people. In the tradition of the times, the main floor had no chairs, and spectators watched the shows standing up. The orchestra was in full sight, as the orchestra pit had not yet been built.

As with most of the theatres at that time, La Scala was also a [[casino]], with gamblers sitting in the foyer.((sfn|Mallach|2007|p=165)) Conditions in the auditorium, too, could be frustrating for the opera lover, as [[Mary Shelley]] discovered in September 1840:

<blockquote>At the Opera they were giving [[Otto Nicolai]]'s ''[[Il templario|Templario]]''. Unfortunately, as is well known, the theatre of La Scala serves, not only as the universal drawing-room for all the society of Milan but every sort of trading transaction, from horse-dealing to [[stockjobber|stock-jobbing]], is carried on in the pit; so that brief and far between are the snatches of melody one can catch.((sfn|Shelley|1844|p=111))</blockquote>

La Scala was originally illuminated with 84 oil lamps mounted on the stage and another thousand in the rest of the theatre. To reduce the risks of fire, several rooms were filled with hundreds of water buckets. In time, oil lamps were replaced by gas lamps; these, in turn, were replaced by electric lights in 1883.
[[File:Milano Teatro alla Scala Postkarte 001.jpg|thumb|300px|left|Interior of the opera house in 1900]]
The original structure was renovated in 1907 when it was given its current layout with 1,987 seats. In 1943, during [[World War II]], La Scala was severely damaged by [[Bombing of Milan in World War II|bombing]]. It was rebuilt and reopened on 11 May 1946, with a memorable concert conducted by [[Arturo Toscanini]]—twice La Scala's principal conductor and an associate of the composers [[Giuseppe Verdi]] and [[Giacomo Puccini]]—with a soprano solo by [[Renata Tebaldi]], which created a sensation.

La Scala hosted the first productions of many famous operas and had a special relationship with Verdi. However, for several years, Verdi did not allow his work to be played here, as some of his music had been modified (he said "corrupted") by the orchestra. This dispute originated in a disagreement over the production of his ''[[Giovanna d'Arco]]'' in 1845; however, the composer later conducted his ''[[Requiem (Verdi)|Requiem]]'' there on 25 May 1874. He announced in 1886 that La Scala would host the premiere of what was to become his penultimate opera, ''[[Otello]]''.((sfn|Kelly|2004|p=317)) The premiere of his last opera, ''[[Falstaff (opera)|Falstaff]]'' was also given in the theatre.

===Filarmonica della Scala===

In 1982, the Filarmonica della Scala orchestra was established to develop a symphonic repertoire to add to La Scala's operatic tradition,<ref name=filarmonica>((Cite web |title=Filarmonica della Scala – About Us, History |website=filarmonica.it |access-date=27 October 2020 |url=https://www.filarmonica.it/biografia.php?lang=en |archive-date=31 October 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201031021124/https://www.filarmonica.it/biografia.php?lang=en |url-status=dead ))</ref> the orchestra drawing its members from the larger pool of musicians that comprise the Orchestra della Scala. The Filarmonica was conducted first by [[Carlo Maria Giulini]], then by [[Riccardo Muti]], plus many collaborative relations with some of the greatest conductors of the time.<ref name=filarmonica/>

==Recent developments==

===1950s===

As early as 1958 R. Vermeulen of Philips Electronics experimented with "loudspeakers for stereo reverberation" at La Scala, which were "concealed in the cove along the ceiling".<ref> Vermeuelen, Roeleof. “Stereo-Reverberation.” Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 6:2 (April 1958), 124–130. [Article includes photograph and installation diagram.]</ref>

===Major renovation, 2002 to 2004===
[[File:Milano scala piazza.jpg|thumb|300px|The exterior of La Scala in 2005 after the 2002/04 renovations]]
The theatre underwent a major renovation from early 2002 to late 2004. The theatre closed following the traditional 7 December 2001 season-opening performances of ''Otello'', which ran through December. From 19 January 2002 to November 2004, the opera company transferred to the new [[Teatro degli Arcimboldi]], built in the Pirelli-Bicocca industrial area ((convert|4.5|mi|km)) from the city center.

[[File:Teatro alla Scala interior Milan.jpg|thumb|left|300px|The theatre's restored interior]]
The renovation by [[architect]] [[Mario Botta]] proved controversial, as preservationists feared that historic details would be lost.<ref>((Cite news |last=Riding |first=Alan |date=5 December 2004 |title=La Scala Proudly Emerges From a Drama of Its Own |language=en-US |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/05/arts/music/la-scala-proudly-emerges-from-a-drama-of-its-own.html |access-date=2 May 2022 |issn=0362-4331))</ref><ref>((Cite web |date=10 December 2002 |title=Critics say restoration has ruined La Scala |url=http://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/dec/10/italy.arts |access-date=2 May 2022 |website=the Guardian |language=en))</ref> However, the opera company was satisfied with the improvements to the structure and the sound quality, which was enhanced when the heavy red carpets in the hall were removed. The stage was entirely rebuilt, and an enlarged backstage allows more sets to be stored, permitting more productions.

Seats now include monitors for the [[Electronic libretto|electronic libretto system]] provided by [[Radio Marconi]], an Italian company, allowing audiences to follow opera libretti in English and Italian in addition to the original language.

The opera house re-opened on 7 December 2004 with a production, conducted by [[Riccardo Muti]], of [[Antonio Salieri|Salieri's]] ''[[Europa riconosciuta]]'', the opera performed at La Scala's inauguration in 1778.<ref>((cite news| url=http://www.cbc.ca/arts/story/2004/11/05/lascalareopen041105.html| title=La Scala revamp finished early| date=5 November 2004| newspaper=[[CBC News]]))</ref> Tickets for the re-opening fetched up to €2,000.<ref name=BBC_fires_official>((cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4297413.stm| title=La Scala board fires top official| date=25 February 2005| newspaper=[[BBC News]]))</ref>

The renovations cost a reported €61&nbsp;million and left a budget shortfall that the opera house overcame in 2006.<ref name=BBC_fires_official />

===2005 onward===
[[File:Barenboim Vienna.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Daniel Barenboim]] (at the Musikverein, Vienna, 2008)]]
Carlo Fontana, the general manager of La Scala since 1990, was dismissed in February 2005 by the board of governors over differences with the music director, [[Riccardo Muti]]. The resulting staff backlash caused serious disruptions and staff strikes. In a statement, the theatre's board said it was "urgent to unify the theatre's management". On 16 March 2005, the La Scala orchestra and other staff overwhelmingly approved a no-confidence motion against Muti. They demanded the resignation of Fontana's replacement, Mauro Meli. Muti had already been forced to cancel a concert a few days earlier because of the disagreements. Italy's culture minister, [[Giuliano Urbani]], supported the conductor but called for urgent action by management to safeguard the smooth operation and prestige of La Scala. On 2 April 2005, Muti resigned from La Scala, citing "hostility" from staff members. ((Citation needed|date=August 2023))

In May 2005, [[Stéphane Lissner]], formerly head of the [[Aix-en-Provence Festival]], was appointed General Manager and artistic director of La Scala, becoming the first non-Italian in its history to hold the office. On 15 May 2006, [[Daniel Barenboim]] was named ''Maestro Scaligero'', or ''de facto'' principal guest conductor of the company. In October 2011, Barenboim was appointed the next music director of La Scala, effective December 2011, with an initial contract of 5 years.<ref>((cite news| title=Barenboim to head La Scala| url=http://www.gramophone.co.uk/classical-music-news/barenboim-to-head-la-scala| work=[[Gramophone (magazine)|Gramophone]]| location=London| date=14 October 2011| access-date=15 October 2011))</ref>

In December 2013, management named [[Riccardo Chailly]] the next music director of La Scala, effective 1 January 2015.<ref name=Chailly>[http://www.gramophone.co.uk/classical-music-news/riccardo-chailly-to-be-la-scalas-new-music-director It's official: Riccardo Chailly to be La Scala's new music director], ''Gramophone'' (London). 10 December 2013.</ref>

Stéphane Lissner left La Scala for the [[Paris Opera]]. His successor ((Interlanguage link multi|Alexander Pereira|de)), formerly director of the [[Salzburg Festival]], began his tenure on 1 October 2014.<ref>((cite news| title=Alexander Pereira to Begin La Scala Tenure in October 2014, Year Earlier Than Originally Announced| url=http://www.operanews.com/Opera_News_Magazine/2013/7/News/Pereira_to_La_Scala_2014.html| work=[[Opera News]]| date=19 July 2013| access-date=7 October 2013))</ref> In June 2019 it was announced that Pereira will leave in 2020 and will be replaced by [[Dominique Meyer]].<ref>((Cite news|url=https://www.welt.de/kultur/article195693091/Teatro-alla-Scala-Meyer-soll-Pereira-in-Mailand-abloesen.html|title=Teatro alla Scala: Meyer soll Pereira in Mailand ablösen|last=Brug|first=Manuel|date=22 June 2019|access-date=31 July 2019))</ref>

La Scala was originally selected to host the opening ceremony of the [[134th IOC Session]] in 2019, but the event was moved to [[Lausanne]], Switzerland after Milan submitted a [[Milan–Cortina d'Ampezzo bid for the 2026 Winter Olympics|joint bid]] with [[Cortina d'Ampezzo]] for the [[2026 Winter Olympics]].<ref>((cite press release| url=https://www.olympic.org/news/ioc-elects-milan-as-host-of-the-ioc-session-in-2019| title=IOC Elects Milan as Host of the IOC Session in 2019| date=15 September 2017| publisher=International Olympic Committee| access-date=21 February 2019))</ref>
