For the musicians of The Norwegian Opera & Ballet (DNO&B)-Orchestra, moving into our splendid new opera house, can safely be said to have been a "one time of the life"- experience. That our new home functionally shows qualities that could match even the greatest among our reference opera houses internationally, like in our dreams, is the general feeling among the colleagues. We probably need some more time until we fully realise the impact of this fact! This brief paper will summarise events that has taken place in the initial period after the inaugural concert of 12th of April 08. Some acoustical experiences of playing in a orchestra rehearsal room will be analysed, and comments will be given to sound environments of orchestra pits, as well as stage acoustics for concerts.
