Mozart Round Trip: On the traces of Mozart

О событии

This guided round trip is focussed on the well‐known and well‐loved composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The journey combines the composer's own hometown of Salzburg with his father's hometown of Augsburg, and with Munich, the site where Mozart’s “Idomeneo” premiered in the famous Cuvilliés‐Theatre.

Enjoy the musical and cultural treasures from Mozart’s time, listen to the “Pearls of Classical Music”- special masterpieces, performed by the “Residenz‐Solisten” (residence soloists) in Cuvilliés‐Theatre, and explore the magical world of Mozart accompanied by a carefully selected cultural historian.
