In the footsteps of Vienna's musicians:
As you surely know, Vienna is the city of music, where artists flourished and created some of the world’s most famous symphonies and operas. Countless musicians called Vienna their home, including Beethoven, Mozart, Gluck, Salieri, Schubert, Schönberg, Mahler, the Strauss Family and many more who were either born in Vienna or stayed here throughout their lifetime. These are the figures you will meet during our Vienna Music Tour.
Their lives were full of drama, secrets, ups and downs. They constantly had to deal with their patrons, clients, enviers and enthusiastic audience. In this two-hours tour we will explore the stories and walk in the footsteps of Vienna’s great musicians.
Tour highlights:
- Burggarten and Mozart’s statue
- The Vienna State Opera
- Mozart- the wonder child from Salzburg
- Vienna’s own great musicians
And much more!
