The Concert Experience
The concert experience at the Palais Auersperg
The Imperial Gala Concert at Palais Auersperg is much more than a classical concert in Vienna – it is a complete experience combining music, singing, ballet and culinary delights. In the magnificent halls of the baroque palace, the masterpieces of Viennese classical music merge with the elegance of the Viennese waltz to create an unforgettable evening.
The soloists of the Vienna Mozart Orchestra are accompanied by internationally acclaimed sopranos and dancers from the Royal Ballet. This combination of sound, song and movement creates an atmosphere that brings Austrian music history and the incomparable Viennese joie de vivre to life in an impressive way.
A concert that honours the great masters – Mozart, the Waltz King Johann Strauss, Vivaldi and many more – and celebrates Viennese dance culture in its most beautiful form: as an encounter between sound, movement and imperial elegance.
