The Prague conservatory:

This is a detached building, on the other side of the river, where the major concerts take place:

The concert hall itself:

And the view from the main building to the other side of the river speaks for itself:

I find the nomination justified.  :)

the tchaikovsky conservatory is really something!  actually all of them - but i liked how that one looked when lit up at night.  imagine prague is the same way.  so musical and so much tradition.

west chester has a new music building. 
there's one from the front and another from the side (you can see the shape of a grand piano in the architecture):
