On Friday 22 September, the Portuguese Chapter of the Friends of ERA held its first event after a long break with a guided tour of the Casa da Música in Porto.
It was an enlightening visit with many interesting glimpses behind the scenes of the Casa da Música.
The origins of the Casa da Música date back to 1998, when the city of Porto was chosen as European Capital of Culture for 2001. Designed by the architect Rem Koolhaas, the Casa da Música is one of Porto’s most emblematic buildings.
The event concluded with a dinner at the Marisqueira Antiga in Matosinhos, where the Friends could enjoy lively conversations in a pleasant atmosphere.
This wonderful gathering was made possible thanks to Carlos de Almeida Lemos, coordinator of the Portuguese Chapter of the Friends of ERA, and we were delighted to welcome 15 members who joined us in Porto.
