Music in Vienna, private walk

"…this (…Vienna) is the best place in the world for my profession…", wrote Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to his father Leopold in April 1781. Why is Vienna a magnet for composers, musicians and singers? What makes the Vienna State Opera House one of the best music institutions worldwide? Learn where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart never woke up until 10am and never went to bed before midnight; Josef Haydn began his career in Vienna; the Vienna Boys Choir sings every Sunday since five centuries and Antonio Salieri, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert and others went in and out. Feel the atmosphere of a city, which had a great importance in the musical world. A sense of humour complements my narrative, helping to ensure a fun and enriching experience. Let me know, if you are interested in a certain composer or in a special musical subject. I will set up a customized tour for you and will organize guided visits to memorials of composers, to the Vienna State Opera or any other musical institution, if necessary.
