Abstract
The �Teatro Principal� of Valencia is one of the oldest Italian Opera Houses in Spain. It has not experimented important typological changes throughout its history (from 1833). This is why it is an excellent room to exhaustively study the acoustics of Italian Style Theatres. Firstly we have conducted a rigorous investigation of the historical evolution of the building. Standard acoustics measures in the theatre have been carried out and a virtual model has been developed. As a result, we present a detailed acoustics characterization of the different audience zones in Italian Opera Houses.
