The Arendort Amphitheater

In the heart of Arendort , a city within the mountain, lies a masterpiece of dwarven architecture: the Arendort Amphitheater. This majestic venue, located in the middle of the city, far from the hustle and bustle of the smelters and mines, is not only a place of entertainment but also a symbol of the rich choral culture of the dwarves.

Purpose of the Amphitheater

The Arendort Amphitheater was conceived as a space dedicated to choral music, especially to choirs, which occupy a central place in dwarven culture. Since its inception, the amphitheater has been the scene of various events, including:

• Seasonal concerts: Each season is celebrated with a themed concert, where traditional songs and original compositions related to the season are performed.
• Choral competitions: Arendort annually organizes competitions for small choirs (12 to 15 members), attracting participants from throughout the region.
• Performances of religious choirs: The choirs of the various dwarven religions also use the amphitheater for their special presentations.
• Amateur choir nights: Once a month, the space is opened to amateur choirs seeking to share their passion for music with the community.

• Expansion of the stage: The original stage was expanded to accommodate larger choirs and allow for a greater variety of presentations.
• Acoustic improvement: Acoustic techniques were implemented to optimize the sound quality, and metal plaques were strategically placed on the walls and ceilings to reflect and disperse sound waves.
