Unquestionably the capital of classical music, Vienna has long been a magnet for composers, painters, philosophers, and artists of all kinds. Mozart, Brahms, and countless others went to the City of Dreams to make their own come true, and in doing so created a rich and lasting musical legacy.
"Its concerts are the slow food of local chamber music, events where sounds and sensibilities, rhapsody and reverie, old music and new, are balanced with care and a sense of individual voice."
