Music tours to Vienna

Cultural hub of Austria
One of Europe’s most beautiful cities
A world capital of music

“Lovely venues, lovely audiences, comfortable accommodation. Alahree was very prompt and efficient with her responses and understood our needs well.”

Gill Chapman, Cecilia Singers, Berkshire

“It was brilliant and everything I expected from a tour and more. Jonathan was brilliant. He was always patient with me and nothing seemed to...”

Cath Danswan, Swindon Choral Society, Wiltshire

Compact and easily explored on foot

Former capital of the Austro-Hungarian empire, Vienna has been at the centre of European affairs for many years. Famous residents include Freud, as well as countless composers; Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler and Bruckner all lived and worked here. Today Vienna is an attractive tourist destination all year round and is full of things to see. The old city ‘Innere Stadt’, surrounded by the elegant ‘Ringstrasse’, is relatively compact and easily explored on foot. St Stephen’s cathedral, at its heart, dominates the skyline.

Concerts

In Vienna itself, groups can give concerts in the magnificent cathedral of St Stephens, where both lunchtime recitals and participation in Mass are possibilities.

Prestigious churches, such as the Baroque Karlskirche, can be hired for a fee for a high profile concert. Outside the city, there are some beautiful spa towns which provide our groups with churches, bandstands and spa halls in which to perform. These concerts are attended regularly by highly appreciative audiences and help give our groups a truly memorable, as well as personal experience.
