Teatro Alla Scala in Milan

AEI Perego: Restoration of La Scala clock
The renowned Teatro alla Scala in Milan celebrates its reopening on 7 December after a three-year reconstruction period. A.E.I. will be there on this day. The previously stopped La Scala clock once again shows the precise time.
The la Scala clock high above the stage, wich was brought to standstill when it was struck by lightning, will again display the precise time to the audience – thanks to the initiative of A.E.I..
The clock was thoroughly overhauled and repaired in a specialist workshop.
The restoration has interested both the rest and the kinematical parts, which has been disassembled and overhauled one by one.
Moreover has been realized a new automation system based on an electronic device which moves the two wheels of hours and minutes.
Finally has been installed a programmable lightning system according to show time-table.

After all, the celebrated Milan Opera House has served as a cultural seismograph for more than 200 years. This house has seen a continuous stream of celebrity conductors and great singers. Enrico Caruso, Luciano Pavarotti or Maria Callas recall unforgettable moments, and Arturo Toscanini, Victor de Sabata or Claudio Abbado ensured the sublime musical quality of La Scala. And because quality and precision are a tradition at A.E.I., we highly honoured by this opportunity to support what is probably the most famous opera house in the world.
