Classic Ensemble Vienna Concert at St Peter's Church

About this experience

Book Classic Ensemble Vienna concert tickets for an hour of Vivaldi, Mozart, Bach, Beethoven and Haydn in St Peter's Church (Peterskirche), one of the most beautiful Baroque churches in Vienna. The church stands just off the Graben in the heart of the Old Town, and its oval nave, painted dome and gilded altars give the music a rich, resonant setting. The ensemble plays well known works such as Vivaldi's Four Seasons and Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik, making this an easy and rewarding concert for first time visitors. Concerts run on many evenings through the year, so it fits neatly into a day of sightseeing. What will you hear? The Classic Ensemble Vienna is a group of experienced string players who specialise in the Baroque and Classical repertoire. Programmes usually combine movements from Vivaldi's Four Seasons with Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik and pieces by Bach, Schubert, Beethoven and Haydn. The exact selection can vary by date, so treat individual works as a guide rather than a promise. The high, single nave of the church lets the strings ring out clearly, and the hour long format keeps the evening focused and relaxed. You still have plenty of time afterwards for dinner in one of the many restaurants and wine taverns in the surrounding lanes, or for a walk past the illuminated shop windows of the Graben and Kohlmarkt. Where is St Peter's Church? St Peter's Church is at Petersplatz 1, 1010 Vienna, a few steps from the Graben and about three minutes on foot from St Stephen's Cathedral. Stephansplatz station (U1, U3) is the closest stop. The church has very old origins, and the present building dates from the early 18th century. Its dome frescoes, stucco work and richly decorated side altars are among the finest in the city, so arrive a little early to look around before the concert starts. Seating and what the ticket includes Your ticket includes entry to St Peter's Church and the one hour concert. Category I gives you reserved seats at the front of the church, while Category II is open seating in the middle and Category III open seating at the back. If you choose Category II or III, arrive at least 15 to 20 minutes early for a better choice of seats. Food, drinks and transport are not included. Smart casual clothing is recommended and shorts are not allowed. Video recording is not permitted, though photos for personal use before and after the music are fine. Is this concert right for you? This concert suits couples, families with older children and anyone who wants to hear famous classical music in a historic church without committing to a long evening. Children under five may find it hard to sit through the full hour. If you are planning more music in Vienna, compare the Vivaldi Four Seasons at Karlskirche, the classical concert at St Anne's Church or, in December, the Christmas concert at St Peter's Church.
