ABOUT THE EVENT

Enjoy this great concert of the Mozart Ensemble Wien at the Viennese Mozart House (Mozarthaus Wien) in which the great composer himself lived and worked.

In this concert you will listen to works by Mozart in the tradition of the Viennese Classical period. The repertoire includes well known string quartets and chamber music of the Viennese School. Although the primary focus is on the work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, compositions by Franz Joseph Haydn, Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert are also on the programme.

The concerts at the Mozart House take place at the monastery of the "German Teotonic Order", where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart lived and worked for Archbishop Colloredo in the year 1781. Mozart actually only officially resided in this house for six weeks in the year 1781 from March 16th until May 2nd. Nevertheless, he wrote his opera "The Marriage of Figaro" here, and Mozart appreciated the wonderful acoustics and the incomparable atmosphere of the "Sala Terrena". The hall "Sala Terrena" is the oldest concert hall in Vienna, where Mozart himself performed many concerts.

The monastery is decorated with beautiful frescoes in the style of the late Venetian Renaissance and is therefore an ideal setting for performances of Viennese classical chamber music of the 18th century. The Sala Terrena, with its beautiful vaulted ceiling, is situated on the ground floor next to the church and the sacristy. Just as the church is a fine example of Gothic revival, the Sala Terrena is a baroque jewel that was beautifully restored in its recent renovation.

The intimate atmosphere of the little hall is ideally suited to visitors to Vienna, and the experience of a concert at Mozart's house is sure to offer lasting memories!
