This contract was honored and the San Carlo was opened on the 4th November 1737 - the king's nameday - with Metastasio's opera "Achille in Sciro".
The consideration of their space averaged values reveals that the Teatro di San Carlo shows objective acoustical characters almost similar to those of other large opera houses of the Italian style, e.g.
In the light of the accepted subjective meaning of the considered physical descriptors, San Carlo appears to be well suited for listening to opera concerts, but it suffers of an excess of clarity and of a weakness of blending and envelopment as far as symphonic music is concerned.

Nella Certosa di San Lorenzo si contano oggi ventiquattro celle, mentre originariamente erano ventisei, alcune delle quali costituite da più di due locali, collocate lungo tre lati dei chiostro stesso.
Accanto a quest'area oggi coltivata a foraggere si possono ammirare i resti di un viale acciottolato di collegamento con la Cappella della Maddalena, costruita a ridosso dei muro di cinta, e i piloni dell'antico acquedotto che portava l'acqua al mulino e ai frantoio.
Il "desertum", infine, si collegava con un vialone rettilineo acciot­tolato al monumento settecentesco di San Brunone, in località Vascella, realizzando un asse prospettico di grande suggestione che, attraverso i portoni dell'ingresso e della clausura e un braccio del chiostro grande, si concludeva nello scalone ellittico.

The architect was more involved with the perfection of the concert hall, and less with the annexes (consisting of small chambers and a single vestibule).
Stendhal commented that this innovaton "did more than any legal marvel to guarantee the goodwill of the people."

Edificato a Napoli nel 1737 per rappresentare l’opera seria, in sostituzione del vecchio San Bartolomeo, rimase a lungo un teatro eminentemente aristocratico, unica punto d’intrattenimento teatrale per il re borbonico Carlo III.
Dopo il 1741, il re concesse in esclusiva al San Carlo la possibilità d’inscenare balli, legati a feste o ad intermezzi comici inseriti tra gli atti dell’opera seria, che rimaneva anch’essa ad appannaggio esclusivo di questo teatro.

 Sabbatini Roberto Devereux Naples 1998
Roberto Devereux, perhaps the finest of Donizetti's tragic operas, was a moving experience on May 28 at the Teatro di San Carlo, where it was first staged in 1837 and first revived (with Leyla Gencer in the title role) in 1964.
David Walker's richly textured sets (done originally for Rome a decade ago) created such an authentic Tudor atmosphere that one was predisposed to believe immediately in what happened onstage, an effect reinforced by Alberto Fassini's cogently unobtrusive direction.
Donizetti's operas are among the most difficult to conduct well, and the success of the performance owed much to the leadership of Alain Guingal, who gave a sweepingly romantic account (galvanizing the somewhat rough-and-ready San Carlo orchestra) that sustained and inspired the singers rather than drowning them.

There are a number of performances of Nabucco in the Teatro de San Carlo, one of which is with Maria Callas from 1949, a monural recording but spectacular performance.
Nabucco was Verdi´s first international success as an opera composer and his first step toward becoming a national hero in Italy.
