	Bucuresti - Romanian Athenaeum
		A traveller who knows Bucharest only from the classic tourist brochures surely has one image engraved in his mind: the Romanian Atheneum, a symbol of the city as far back as its 1888 inauguration.
		The repertoire later also included works by contemporary Romanian composers, including Anatol Vieru, Tiberiu Olah, Stefan Niculescu, and Pascal Bentoiu, but current concert programs are still mostly classical and romantic, the role of promoting new musical creations being left to the Radio orchestra, as is the case in other parts of Europe.
		These perform recitals in the Large Hall or the "Studio Hall" of the Romanian Atheneum almost every day at 7 p.m., and at the end of the week even at 11 a.m.
