Salzburg is a great place to explore on foot

Salzburg is probably best known as Mozart’s birthplace, as well as for its magnificent Old Town. The main landmark is the Hohensalzburg fortress which dates back to the Middle Ages and which sits imposingly above the city; it is the largest, most perfectly preserved fortress in Central Europe.

Concerts

Our excellent contacts in Salzburgerland mean that we can provide marvellous performing opportunities for all group types.

Most small towns, such as St Wolfgang and St Gilgen, have covered music pavilions which are suitable for some of the larger symphonic wind bands and even small orchestras. We work closely with some of the picturesque churches in the small Alpine villages, such as Flachau, where a warm welcome is assured. An impromptu recital may be given by choirs with a sacred repertoire in Salzburg cathedral, while the Mirabell Gardens give bands the opportunity to perform in this grand and beautiful city.

Where to stay

Popular places to stay.

We use a number of high quality youth centres in the region. One such is the Markushof in Wagrain. Thanks to substantial investment by the Riepler family, the house (100 beds) boasts high standards of catering and accommodation. It has extensive leisure facilities and is in a quiet location only about a kilometre from the village centre. The rooms are 2-8 bedded (single and bunk beds) and all have shower and toilet. There are a new tuck shop and leaders’ suites.

How to Choose your Music Tour Destination

FAQs

Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

We understand that school music tours are considered as a reward or holiday for many groups and that where you stay is really important. All hotels and hostels we use are suitable for young music ensembles with many offering rehearsal space and instrument storage. Rooms are normally multi-bedded for students and twins, sometimes singles, for adults. Generally, rooms are en-suite.

The most pleasant times of year to come to Europe are May to September, therefore you may wish to consider this when planning your tour. Summer temperatures across Europe range from 18-35 degrees Celsius. European cities in winter can also offer many interesting cultural experiences that you may enjoy.

We accept any group as long as they are used to performing together as an ensemble, even if only to their fellow students and parents. We always ask for a recent recording of your group and we have range of venues on offer that will welcome beginner groups as well as experienced ensembles.
