✦ Synopsis

Proposed objective criteria related to the acoustic conditions for instrumentalists and singers have not received a su$ciently wide consent yet. In spite of this situation, it is the opinion of the authors that the measurement of existing criteria is useful for analysis and comparison. This paper reports the results of various acoustic measurements carried out in the Teatro di San Carlo, Naples-Italy, with the aim of obtaining objective information about its acoustics for performers. A "rst set of measurements was carried out when the theater was "tted for a symphonic concert and a second one when it was "tted for an opera performance.
