Classic > Dinner & Concert

Since their very first performance, our daily Schoenbrunn Palace Concerts have come to form an integral part of
Vienna‘s cultural and musical life.
At Schoenbrunn Palace Orangery, a place rich in tradition, the Schoenbrunn Palace Orchestra Vienna and the Schoenbrunn
Palace Ensemble Vienna present the most beautiful melodies created by two of the greatest composers of all
times: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Johann Strauss.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Johann Strauss

In the first part, you will enjoy some of the most enchanting overtures, arias and duets from operas by Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart: „Le Nozze di Figaro“, „The Magic Flute“ and „Don Giovanni“ among others.
The second part features the most popular operetta arias, waltzes and polkas written by the „King of Waltz“ Johann
Strauss, including „The Bat „, „The Gypsy Baron“, the world-famous waltz “The Blue Danube” as well as the “Radetzky
March”.
The orchestra is accompanied by two opera singers, a soprano and a baritone and two ballet dancers wearing historic
costumes.
