Overview
Vienna is the capital of music. More famous composers have lived and created here than in any other city – in Vienna, music is literally in the air!
Almost every street in Vienna city centre can recount stories of famous composers - including Beethoven, Haydn, Mozart, Brahms, Gluck, Johann Strauss, Salieri, Schubert, Schönberg and many more.
There is also the unrivalled Vienna Boys Choir - Sunday Mass at the medieval chapel of the Hofburg Palace is an excellent opportunity to listen to their angelic voices but tickets have to be purchased well in advance.
