Vienna Residence Orchestra - Daily Mozart & Strauss Classical Concerts

Concert & Orchestra 

The Vienna Residence Orchestra  — a Viennese chamber orchestra with long tradition — was founded to perform the music of the "Wiener Klassik" in its purest form.

The numerous concert series this orchestra has performed in the last decades have taken place at some of the most beautiful palaces in Vienna.
In 1991 the orchestra was appointed the official representative of the City of Vienna in the festivities commemorative the bicentenary of Mozarts death and has also performed a number of concerts at the «Vienna International Festival».

The program includes the most famous and beautiful works of the Viennese classics of W.A. Mozart and Johann Strauss, played by anything from 10 to 40 musicians, accompanied by professional opera singers and ballet dancers.

One of the best orchestras of Vienna´s music world will take you on a journey through time back to the days of Imperial Vienna.

VENUES
(will be announced upon booking request) 

Palais Auersperg
Auerspergstrasse 1
A-1080 Vienna

The Rosenkavalier Palace — it stands — just as one would expect — in Vienna, and bears exactly the same name as on 8th October 1777: Palais Auersperg (Auersperg Palace).

On that day it was purchased by Prince Johann Adam Auersperg, some 50 years after it had been built by master builder Giovanni Christiano Neupauer, according to plans by the legendary Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach. The original owner was a certain Hieronymus Capece de Rofrano – who’s name immediately transports us directly into Richard Strauss’ opera “Der Rosenkavalier” (The Cavalier of the Rose)! Octavian de Rofrano, the cavalier at the court of the great Austrian Empress Maria Theresia, the gallant suitor with the silver rose, actually existed!

Ruhmeshalle (Hall of Fame), Arsenal, Objekt 1
Museum of Military History Vienna
Ghegastrasse
A-1030 Vienna

It is impossible to capture the fascination of this room in a picture. To fully appreciate it, one has to stand in this magnificent hall and let the frescoes by Carl v. Blaas, the majestic dome, and the unparalleled architectural splendour take their effect.

 

The Vienna Stock Exchange
Wipplingerstrasse 34
A-1010 Vienna 

When Vienna’s Ringstrasse was erected in place of the old city walls, the Vienna Stock Exchange found a new home in one of the monumental buildings along this unique city boulevard. The building was designed by the father of historicism, Baron Theophil von Hansen, and was built during the years 1870 through 1877 in the typical Viennese style with the clean, austere lines of the Renaissance.
