Unmissable hedonistic Haydn in Vienna
There are still places available for this new and never to be repeated all-inclusive music festival, commemorating the bicentenary of the death of Josef Haydn, one of the most celebrated and influential composers the world has seen.
The festival features seven private concerts, exclusive to festival participants, in a range of historic buildings throughout Vienna, including the rarely accessible Palais Esterházy, the Hall of the Muses in the Albertina and the Rittersaal in the Hofburg Palace.
There is also a concert held in the magnificent 17th century Schloss Esterházy in nearby Eisenstadt. All seven concert venues are ones Haydn would or could have known, and it is known that his music was played under his direction in three of them.
The musicians are among the finest from Austria and Hungary, including The Esterházy Trio, Wiener Akademie, the Austro-Hungarian Haydn Philharmonic, Bach Consort Wien and Vienna Piano Trio. The musicologist and Haydn biographer Richard Wigmore gives daily lectures on the music.
Participants stay in one of a selection of four- and five- star hotels in the centre of Vienna, one of the world’s foremost centres of art and architecture, as well as Europe’s capital of music for most of the last 400 years.
Prices start from £2,480 per person and include access to all seven concerts, hotel accommodation on a dinner (with wine and coffee), bed and breakfast basis, flights between London and Vienna (non flight options also available), interval drinks, lectures by the musicologist, coach travel, all tips and taxes, a detailed programme booklet & much more.
