May not have understood it but thoroughly enjoyed it Had never been to a classical concert before - so while in Vienna I thought why not. I was captivated by the location and enthralled by the music. The time just flew by. Yes I possibly didn't fully understand Vivaldi's Four Seasons but boy did I enjoy it.

Misrepresentation I went to the Mozart house concert. The music was good - but it was not in Mozart's house! The entire purpose of the concert was the ornate decorations and history of the venue. Instead, we were in an abhorrently decorated modern room where they didn't even bother to unwrinkle the carpet the musicians were playing on. I have no recollection of them telling me it wasn't in the normal venue before purchasing - if they did, they must have sneaked it in somewhere where the customer doesn't see it. Awful rip-off, praying on tourists. It was hard to even enjoy the musicians when I was so disappointed I had fallen for their ploy like a shmuck - and then they have the audacity to charge for water in their swelteringly hot modern building that despite it's being at least fifty times younger than the actual building, does not have air conditioning. Better to call ahead and double-check everything before dealing with this vendor.

Dreadful pre concert meal We booked a package with pre concert dinner at the Grand Hotel Wine and concert at the Musikverein with the Vienna Mozart orchestra. We had an execrable meal in the 1870 restaurant terrace at the Grand consisting of watery soup followed by chicken thighs in a tired room with poor service. The concert was musically very good although the seats were hard and the lighting uncomfortably bright. Enjoy the concert, eat elsewhere

Royal Orchestra Venue Deception While order and getting our seat was easy enough. The advertised event was far from what we actually experienced. We went and saw the Vienna Royal Orchestra. All advertisement was that the venue was supposed to be in the House of Industry or Niederoesterreich Palace.; however, after getting our tickets and arriving at the address it turns out the venue is now a school gymnasium (I wish I was making this up). While the quality of performance was decent, it doesn't nearly make up for the 59 euro/person we paid based on the website images. Will be contacting for any reconciliation. Have another concert tomorrow....cant be worse can it?

Two splendid evenings... We experienced two evenings with Vienna Concerts on a recent trip to Austria, once in Salzburg and once in Vienna. On both evenings, we were well looked after and the meal was most enjoyable but it was the music which made the evenings special. This is particularly so with the Mozart concert in Salzburg.
